as well as using 4 G of memory, 800/1066 (depending if i get a kuma or not)
So I am curious if there is a difference between the 3 processors at regular use... running aps, burning dvd's etc...I know the am2+ kuma would give me the chance to run 1066, as oppose to 800 (i'm planning on getting the 1066 regardless, since there is no price difference, just in case), and it has 3mb cache (over brisbane's 2x512 - which i'm assuming is 1mb, and 6000's 1mb), and a 3600mhz hyper transport (vs 2000 mhz for the other two)....how would this hyper transport vs. operating frequence vs. 1066 or 800 play out into my needs in other words?
I know the 5600/6000 have good fans, that are supposedly quiet, and since this computer is going to be in the bedroom, I guess my biggest preference would be to minimalize the noise as much as possible...the 5600 seems like a reasonable choice here, since it's the "coolest" one out of the bunch. With Kuma, I would buy an "arctic cooling freezer", but not sure if it would be just as quiet with 95 Watts? Maybe I'm reading into it too much?
I appologize if I asked some silly question, but I'm very much an amateur in all this, and wanted to come straight to the source for some opinions. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks

the 7750 is the newest of the 3 and is an improvement over the others. i would definitely get that one. and i have an arctic cooling freezer 64 pro and it's completely silent. Even quieter than the stock amd fan that the cpu came with.
