I'm an AMD guy, but I'll welcome all suggestions..
I'm building a new rig soon to appease my new found gaming side, I'd like a new AMD Phenom X4, or even an X3.. But would I REALLY benefit with a tri or quad core over lets say a 6000 X2?? MILD OC also.. I don't feel like frying anything. I read in the other thread where someone said that most dual cores will out perform a quad core. Has AMD fixed the bugs I was hearing about with the quads?? Would it be worth the money versus a NICE SLI mobo and AM2+ 6000+CPU?
I'm mainly playing Crysis right now, getting COD4 this weekend and I'll get the new Crytek games when they come out.. Or the other one that was mentioned to me in the other thread. How will the game use a quad vs a dual core? No difference? I'm still new to the EXACT operations of processors. I'm gonna be taking some computer courses at the local college sometime late this year.
I realizing that this computer hobby can make me some money!
Thanx for the advice..
