Athlon II or Phenom X4??? or Intel E7500 (2.93G) 3mb 1066fsb C2D

guys here's what i've been thinking for a while since christmas is comming and in our friendly computer shop is selling only these processors at my budget price so which 1 would be good enough + i also want 2 put it in a ECS GF8200A mobo except for the intel well the intel budget is off my list but is worth thinking to decide what to buy

buying this december have only $213 to buy a 3 component system used in Mild gaming.... no oc i think

The performance between all of those will be similar. However, I would go for the athlon II x4. The four cores will help a lot in multi threaded apps and overall productivity. You shouldn't see much of a disparity, if any, in games due to the clock speed deficiency vs e7500. If you ever decide to overclock, the Athlon II has more headroom than Phenom I.

Is Phenom I x4 any good??? its got L3 cache and games toady are evolving somehow and the athlon II x4 is not in my country yet and the e7500 and the phenom are at the same price range here....

and is ECS GF8200 good enough?? i mean for the price of PHP 3400 = $74.5 or something here's a link to the pc provider here if you can suggest me some items pls do you guys have more experience than me. i'm just a newbie at this but i somehow know somethings though... http://www.pcx.com.ph/

I would prefer Athlon II X4 of all those...
It is based on the newer PhenomII Architecture.

Phenom X4 are oldies...They run hot and don't OC well.

And no point of buying E7500 now.
(I've got an E7300 and know what i m saying)
If you want a dual core then get Phenom II x2 550.
