Default n00b processor question. Yes, I\'m a huge n00b.

The AMD 64 3000+ socket 939 with 512K L2 cache. Winchester.

It's going to pwn my current P4 1.8, correct?

I hear it's easy and safe to overclock the chip to something like 2.4 as well. Thoughts?

Finally, recommend a mobo to go with this chip.

Finally... the biggest n00b question in the post. I keep reading things like "The only 64-bit Windows Compatible Processor" associated with the 3200+ chip. Does that mean my 3000+ won't run Windows XP? Or does it mean it won't run the new 64-bit windows that's allegedly coming out at some point? Or does it mean neither? d4mn 1m 5uch 4 hug3 |\|00b.

Yes, I've asked before, I've procrastinated horribly... I really need a new box because mine is sounding like a dying elephant.
