If you're interested in prices the phenom II 940 costs about 300 euros, which is about 420 dollars. But you get lower prices there, so I am guessing that it will cost much less.
Of course, I may be making a fool of myself and this AM2+ phenom II 940 is out a long time and just came to Greece and I don't know what I am talking about.
Still, though, any info would be appreciated, especially since I am in the market for a new pc (but can wait until spring)...
I also have two builds at the moment, well three but the third is a P4 3.0ghz I got at the 3.0ghz at the egg and upgraded my girlfriends old computer with a AsRock 456i prescott board it think. My 6400be processor seems to run games very well, and I don't even think it would bottle neck any games that are out at this time, let alone my quad bottle neckin them.
I am not sure were your getting off calling me a noobie Road, I am not a noobie unless you consider a 31 year old, who has been around computers all my life, got tired of buying crap store bought computers about 3 years ago and started building my own systems. I am not the best builder out there I am sure, however I can hold my own.
But then again you call my $1500 dollar custom system that is a quad core a piece of crap, which just show how out of touch you are with the real world...
