Please help me figure out which AMD CPU is better for gaming. I am looking at the Athlon X2 6400 or the Phenom 9850BE. After reading and reading, i still cant figure out if dual core or quad core is better for gaming, higher clock speeds vs more cores. I currently play only 1 video game, hellgate london, but may play Diablo 3 when it comes out. I also use this computer for multimedia, internet and burning dvds. My current setup is an Athlon X2 5600, gigabyte MA790X-DS4 (790X chipset) mobo and an ATI 4850 video card. The price difference between the 2 CPUs is not a factor.
