Re: Help!... AMD & Dual Core Processors
Forget amd 'x2' dual cores. the cheapest x2 atm is the 4200 and its costs over £400, compare that to the middle of the field 830 intel that was suggested which costs £240. Small difference there!
dual core is a thing to come for games. yes there isnt much yet but they are coming big time. The new consoles are multi cpu and intel are pushing hard with aggresive dual core prices (£170 for the basline cpu)
You'll need an i945, or i955x chipset based board to go with that dual core. not an nforce 4 intel edition as they are poor
