AMD Phenom II X2 555 Black Edition 3.2GHz
Core Speed (MHz) 3200
6MB L3 CACHE
CMOS 45nm SOI
I'm thinking the L3 cache in this may really help.
or
AMD Athlon II X3 450 3.2GHz
Clock Speed - 3.2 GHz
Cache Memory - L2 1.5 MB ( 3 x 512 KB)
45 nm
Socket - Socket AM3
Exactly the same speed but with an extra core, although no L3 cache. I think this would be good for when I have background programs?
I would be playing the older Call of Dutys, Crysis and some other games. GTX 460 GPU.
Over at computerforums.org they think the Athlon would be best.
