Hi all,

I'm new to the hosting scene and was wondering what you think is the best in terms of hosting speed for a server:

- AMD 650 MZH, 256mb ram, 64 cache
- Pentium III (Coppermine) 868, 256mb ram, 256 cache.

Thanks for any advice!

Out of your choices I would go for the P3.

Take the pentium-3 they are less warm, and for a server that is a must. If you ask me :-)

The AMD processor is great, just as long as adequate cooling is provided. However, you could do much better than a 650MHz processor. For a few dollars more, you could get at least a 1GHz Athlon.
