Ok someone asks my help in upgrading his pc mainly the cpu, mobo, psu and RAM..He will use it for multi tasking and photo edting and slight gaming as well...I want to ask if this mobo is good for Core 2 Duo?
Gigabyte GA945P-S3

And Intel Core 2 Duo E6300
And will Geil 512MB DDR2 667Mhz ran on that? Cant find DDR800 here yet..
His budget is $300 at max. Sadly, on the Core 2 Duo setup, after the cpu and mobo, there is only little left for a cheap psu. he has 1gb ddr400 to sell for that Geil 512MB DDR667 so no prob on RAM..Video card only..
I want to ask also if AMD Athlon X2 is good in multitasking and photoediting as well? I might suggest him the AMD setup instead due to monetary issues. ANd seeing that AMD performed just as well before Conroes came.
Thanks
