What's the Best CPU I can get for this Mother board. I like to run muiltiple tasks on this Computer, but what I see is that...... you really can't. I was trying to talk to a friend on MSN (voice), and do some minor video editing on it, and it just was to much for it to handle. I'm not sure if there is a dual core CPU available, but what the best possible CPU i can upgrade it to (performance), or am i stuck. (i think i might be)..
One more thing.. When I right click properties on my computer it says it's 3.0 GHZ, but the very next line says 1.98 GHZ. What is that??? if it's a 3ghz CPU, why isn't it running that???
Thanks so much for your help.....
