I am making a list of hardware that I want to buy for my budget pc upgrade.
Those are my current specs:
Nvidia GT210 1GB
2GB RAM DDR2
350W PSU
Intel Celeron E3400 @2.60GHz @2.60GHz Dual-Core
And the motherboard: P5KPL-AM SE
I found a mobo and CPU combination for my budget which is £80.
The thing is that the CPU would be:
AMD Phenom II X3 710
or
AMD Athlon II X2 250
(depends on the final price)
I want to use my PC for at least low to medium settings gaming in newer games. Also game developing in Unity 3D, Photoshop CS5 and Sony Vegas 11, which lags with my current system.
Is Dual Core enough for me?
