CPU Upgrade P4 - Pd940 3.2
Last response: in CPUs
Im looking to upgrade my current system:
P4 3.0Ghz HT
1Gb ddram
Geforce 6600GT
Asus P4p800 se
X-fi Elite pro
As you can see its not pci express and most components except the sound card arnt really top of the line.
I would like to move to the pci express which would involve me replacing all but the sound card ( i would want to move to ddr2 aswell)
Ive been looking around and ive seen this cpu Pentium D 940 3.2 dual core
Is this a good cpu for gaming? is it worth the money to upgrade now or should i wait, and do you think that is a fair price for that cpu? or could i gett an equivilant amd performing cpu for less, i get confused between the 2, and i am not a fan boy of either.
Also can someone update me on the latest socket for amd and intel, so can get and understaning of whats old, and whats coming.
