At this point, are 64 bit athlon or pentium processors worth paying that much money for; as I was considering building a new computer. If not, what would be the most cost-effective high-end mobo/cpu combo I could get?

Also, as I was removing a Socket-a processor, I accidentally chipped off part of one of the plastic grooves that holds it in place, making it impossible to mount a processor on it (it won't hold it in place). Is there any way to fix that?

thanks

1.(IMHO) no. I would look into the dual processor P3 Xeon.
Windows loves it, but its pricy... 2x P3-2.6 is ALOT faster then the P4.
