Alright guys i really need your help

I am working on my grandfathers computer and it has a Celeron D 340 2.9ghz with 768 megs of ram and a 160gb hard drive.

Now would a P4 2.0ghz be faster?

well, i just tried it and actully it was a lot more faster

started up faster

menus faded more smoother and everything.

IDK, maybe i am wrong, but it seems better.

But could you tell me why?

That would make no sense...

The P4 2.0GHz has a FSB of 400 and 512kB of cache, the Celeron D has 64bit instruction set, 533MHz FSB and 256kB cache.

The cache isn’t doing so much and the 933MHz difference should be way faster...

I would say, try a BIOS update…

EDIT: No 64bit...

Overall system performance doesn't just depend on which processor you have. Menu animations and such depend on whether or not you have the proper video drivers, loaded programs, etc etc.

I don't think those two processors are interchangeable anyways. I'd stick with the CeleronD and just give the system a good cleaning.
