I really need a new mobo, mine can't hold enough ram Enter me pleases!

I actually ended up getting a different PC from someone I know who custom built it, still has the Q660 but it has dual 8800gtx's rather than a single 9800gt (the motherboard for that other computer didn't have an SLI config) and ended up getting the whole package and a nice new monitor for a little ...

Thanks for the insight. I think I will probably go with the Q6600. I plan on keeping it for a few years anyway, I will most likely get a ram upgrade, maybe an operating system upgrade (I hate vista...only putting 2gb of ram in it for now and sticking with XP, maybe upgrade to 64 bit vista and get so...

Didn't you say you'd go with a faster dual-core before? Say I upgraded the 9600GT to a 9800GT, then it would be a 3.0ghz dual-core compared to a 2.4ghz quad-core, with every other part being the same, and the dual-core being cheaper Sorry i was abit confused as to the options, i thought that it was...

well if you can why not go with the q6600 and the 9800gt? if you really wanted to save money the 8800gt and the 9800gt are the same thing, but the 8800gt's cost less Not in the Uk there not. 9800gt's in the UK site at around £90 compared to the £105 of the 8800gt's. But the GT's are nice, at least ...

The video card is still the most important part of the system when it comes to gaming. What CPU and video card options do you have? Intel Core 2 Duo E8400 Dual-Core 3.0GHz with NVIDIA GeForce 9600GT AMD Phenom X3 8650 Triple-Core 2.3GHz with NVIDIA GeForce 9800GT (same price as the dual-core system...

this is not entirely true. a q6600 can easily be overclocked to 3ghz on any board, and they perform about the same in games The e8200 will overclock a bit more under the same circumstances. But now i think about it an average overclock between the two isn't use, and nor is the processors impact on ...

If your a gamer i suggest you go with a faster dual core, such as the E8200. The performance wont be too far off the phenom you said and it will play better in games. Both will do fine, but if you play alot of FPS games then every little FPS can help, especially when running high resolutions which ...

I will most likely be using it for similar things. Gaming mostly but some photoshop and probably some video editing and such. Money isn't necessarily critical but I would always prefer to spend less if I have the choice! Most likely I will be overclocking but with that processor I don't know if I wi...

I am looking to buy a new gaming PC and I am down to a choice of a few processors. I am unsure which to choose of the following: AMD Phenom X3 8650 Triple-Core 2.3GHz Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 Quad-Core 2.4GHz While the obvious choice may be the Quad-Core, it is significantly more expensive. The clock...
