Ok, now I have enough budget to buy a powerfull processor for gaming. My 1st processor was Pentium 4 3.0Ghz overclocked to 3.25Ghz. Before I upgrade my processor, I do a research which processor is worth to buy. I take a look at Core 2 Duo and Pentium Dual Core. Both of them are good processor but I want to make a big upgrade for my motherboard socket, 775. I ask everyone what processor good to use, then they recommend a quad core. I dont know what quad core is, but they said quad core is extremely powerfull technology, like Core 2 Quad and Core 2 Extreme.
My motherboard support quad core technology like Core 2 Quad/Extreme. Lol, I cancaled my plan to get the C2D and P. Dual Core, and begins to accumulate a little money. Now my budget is enough to buy those processor. So, how good these processor? I want answer from experience people, who have been use these processor, and please don't just make a guess. And, if you are given a score from 1 - 10 which 10 is the best, what score you'll give to these processor?
Besides, what is the "strongest" graphic card these processor can handle so it wont bottlenecked each other?
