It looks like i've been out of the loop a few months too long. I'm coming back to whole new slew of changing tech. So to say the least i have a few questions. Please keep in mind price vs performance.
First Processors.
Are dual cores all they claimed to be. I'm planning on building a gaming rig for around $1000. Should I go with a strong single core or a mid dual. Also I'd prefer amd to intel.
If i go amd should i bother with the am2 and ddr2 or just stick with the standard.
What real world benifit does ddr2 have over ddr? $vsPerformace.
and lastly whats up in the 200-300ish video card realm now.
Thanks
