What CPU to upgrade to ???

[Ciuy]

Hello,

I`m planning to upgrade my CPU for now, but my budget isnt exactly big (damn world financial crysis).

I curently have an AMD Brisbane 4400+ Overclocked at 2.7Ghz (from 2.3ghz stock) ... stock cooler etc.
M2N-E Asus mobo, 4Gb Ram Corsair, 9600GT GPU Gigabyte, 250GB hdd, Win Vista64.

I selected some CPUs:

the new AMD Athlon64 x2 7750, 2,7ghz with L3 chace
or the old AMDx2 6000+ Brisbane

another consideration would be the Phenomx3 8450.

Mostly i sue PC to play HD movies and play games... i hope this CPU will help me get with several games that will launch this game, cause the 4400+ felt at the edge with several 2008 games. Ofcourse i got planned a GPU upgrade to for later, hopefully an ati 4850 or maybe 4870. So take that nto consideration. My PSU is a Thermaltake 400W. Most ppl say i get the 6000+ cause it has highest clockspeeds. I heard the 7750 can be easily overclocked.

What do you recomend?

get the amd phenom II x3 720be. this cpu is a beast its got unlocked multipliers so u can overclock like hell. it takes on the e8400 from intel and beats it in most benchies so give it a thought! and check out this review

yeah, thanks , seems like a nice cpu, problem is....its way over my budget, i dunno the pricing in other countrys but in my country new stuff are overpriced heavily, goddamn country .
its like 200 euros here... maybe in a few "years" it will get a better price.

in India its rs 5000 thats $100 and between the 6000+ and x27750 i would go for the 7750 coz its got 45nm manufacturing,overclocks well and has 3mb l3 cache oh btw i would also suggest you to check out the e5200 from intel.
