upgrading advise between gpu and cpu.
Hey guys,
i really want to upgrade to a quad, and i cant wait for the q9450 even though its right around the corner.
I was wondering if the q6600 and q9450 will perform the same at stock speeds?
I do have a tuniq and have a good case for cooling, so im not too worried about temps.
The things i have questions is about performance. Will the new 45nm processors be better than the old quads at same speeds?
I know it has more cache, but i dont do editing and encoding.
I play games, do hw, watch movies, listen to music, and burn cds.
Im trying to sell my e6550 for 100 bucks with acfp and my ultra so i can get a quad with an 8800gt or 8800gts and that way ill end up saving money and get better performance too.
And if i get a new evga card i will be able to step up to the new 9 series cards.
so whjat do you guys think i should do?
so what do you think>?
