Hi all
It is now time to upgrade my CPU and i need some help determining right one
this one below, is a perfect price for me
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819115206
My specs (currently) are
CPU: Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 3.00GHz
CPU speed: 2.99 GHZ
RAM: 3 GB
OS: Windows XP service pack 3
Video card: NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GTS 320mb OC
Hard drive: 150 GB, (have 45 GB free as of now and can uninstall some stuff if I have to)
MainBoard: Dell Precision 370 w/ 775 LGA socket.
Also I'm a Battlefield fan and i play Battlefield 1942, Vietnam and 2 local coop w/ 64 bots and it lags like crazy (primary reason for upgrading). I understand these are older games so i dont know if they work the dual core. Someone told me BF would then only use one core but then i wonder if that one core is powerful enough to run 64 bots with no lag.
Any help is greatly appreciated. =)
