Dell Dimension 4600 v 5000

Nov 21, 2011 12:06AM PST

<span id="INSERTION_MARKER">Hi I have a Dell 4600 Dimension which I have had for a number of years. It works fine and suits my needs ie surfing the net and Itunes. I have been given a Dimension 5000 and wondered if anyone can tell me which is the better machine and why? Thanks

Thanks, the processor seems to be the same ie 2.8ghz but the 5000 has HT as well??? also having a look on the crucial memory website it would appear that memory is better than half the price for the 5000 than it is for the 4600.
