Hello All,
I am new to the forum. I hope I do not insult anyone with my noobness!
Here is my question. I am currently getting ready to upgrage my old P4 2.8 6600 GT system. I have read many articles on Tom's Hardware. I need advice on which cpu to get for my use. I basically only play America's Army, Civilization III and IV, along with some online poker. Here are my conclusions so far. Any advice/suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Power Supply-Silverstone ST50 EF
Memory-G.Skill 2GB (2x1GB) PC2 6400
Video-EVGA 8800GTS 320mb ram
Motherboard-Gigabyte GA-P35-DS3R
Hard Drive-Seagate Barracuda 7200.10 320GB
Cpu Cooling-CoolMaster HyperTX2
Monitor-HP W2207 22" (will come later)
CPU-????
CPU 1-Dual Core E2160 1.8Ghz (will overclock to 3.0Ghz 333fsb if needed for my games)
CPU 2-Core 2 Duo 6750 2.66Ghz
What do all of you think based on my gaming needs? Thanks in advance!!! After reading some of these post you seem like a great bunch of helpful people.
Hopefully your new friend,
Street Glide
(2007 model Harley-Davidson that I ride alot!!!)
P.S. Anyone know how to email Tom's Hardware?????
