My nephew is upgrading his computer, and I have the chance to buy a 2.8ghz P4 with Hyperthreading (it could possibly be 3.0, even) and his motherboard, an Asus P4S800, for a pretty good price.
Recently i've been getting into 3D modeling and all of that, and I know that AMD's aren't too good in this area. My current CPU is a 2500XP Barton on a MSI K7N2. Will I notice a noticeable improvement in areas such as these?
Also, I'll be getting it either way, since this is a good oppourtunity to get a standalone folding machine for me. xD But, still, some input would be appreciated.
