    friend is selling a 2.8ghz p4 retail box. Think I should get it and swap out the 2.4ghz in my Dell?

    How much $$$ does he want to sell it to you for? Is your p-4 a 2.4 "A" or 2.4 "B". The "A" is the 400 fsb. The "B" is the 533 fsb. If you have the "A" you will gain some. If you have the "B" wouldn't that big of a upgrade. But if its cheap enough go for it.

    Sorry its late i just noticed its the 533fsb. Still if its cheap enough get it otherwise it isn't that much of a upgrade for big $$$. Will your mobo take the 2.8?

    How much does he want for. The most I'd pay is $300 because it isn't that much of a performance increase.

    Unless it's less than $100, I wouldn't get it. 400Mhz isn't worth it at all.
