1.2GHz Athlon or 1.3GHz Duron?

[John Carlyle-Clarke]

I've got a system with a 1.3GHz Duron (with NVidia NForce chipset),
and I've acquired a 1.2GHz Athlon. My question is, should I swap
chips? Which should be faster for general use? I run XP.

Thanks in advance.

The Athlon as it has more and better level 2 cache and you could most
likely O/C to a higher spec anyway.
