im really trying to debate on which cpu i should get. the choices im going back and forth in-between are:

and

They both seem really great, and idk which one i would rather buy, im not thinking about the money, its only 20$ difference, but i want to know what will be better in the long run. I have a asus k8v-se motherboard and its a 754 socket like both of those processors. currently i have the amd 2800+, I also need help choosing a decent heatsink. thanks -Nick
 
I would go with the 3400+ just for the larger L2 memory cache. Are you planning on overclocking? If not, then the fan/heatsink combo that comes with the processor will be sufficient.
