I NEED a new processor. The problem is that I have a 775LGA socket. From what I've read, this is the oldest of the 3 main sockets. So if I want to get a good processor, I'll have to upgrade my motherboard as well (and possibly RAM?).
What I'm asking is if you guys think I should buy a new CPU for my current motherboard (like the Q6600) or upgrade my motherboard and get a good processor? The obvious issue is cost, but I think that upgrading my motherboard now will save me money in the long run, compared to spending money to get a slightly better processor now.
Any ideas?
