Hi guys,

I'm building a new games PC and cant decide wich will be better, both cost the same:

Intel Core 2 Duo E6750 2.66ghz 4mb Cache 1333FSB
Crucial 4x1GB 240-Pin DIMM PC2-6400 Unbuffered Non-ECC CL4

or

Intel Core 2 Duo E6850 3.0ghz 4mb Cache 1333FSB
Crucial 2x1GB 240-Pin DIMM PC2-6400 Unbuffered Non-ECC CL4

Thanks

How bout a Q6600 with 4 gig? You won't regret spending the extra few bucks.

Thanks for the reply. I cant quite afford the Q6600 with 4GB

But it's got me thinking:
What's better:
E6850 3.0GHZ with 2GB
or
Q6600 2.4GHz with 2GB
Both cost around the same

I can always add another 2GB RAM in the future.

By the way once I have the rig running for a few months I will be overclocking it.

Def. 100% on the Q6600...no way around it. Overclocking the Q6600 to 3.2 is child's play, and runs no risks. Basically, you're getting a $1000 processor for $200, all you have to do is a simple, simple, SIMPLE overclock.

In fact, I'll go so far as to say you'd be shooting yourself in the foot going with any of the other options over the Q6600.

Nice one guys - the Q6600 seams to be the one to get.
Thanks for the advice.
