HELLO! AND THANKS!
One question before the build, when is a quad-core more useful than a dual core?
I was planning on getting a Phenom ii x4 965 and overclock but people say the Intel dual cores would *poop* on it..
Approximate Purchase Date: e.g.: ASAP
Budget Range: $500!
System Usage from Most to Least Important: Gaming(ex: Lol, Minecraft, Civ5, Dirt 3) , Youtube, Facebook and casual stuffzz
Are you buying a monitor: NO
Do you need to buy OS: Yes. I will use Linux and if I have TOO many problems i will buy a $30 copy of Windows7
Preferred Website(s) for Parts: Legitimate websites please
Location: Omaha, NE, USA
Overclocking: Yes if possible.
SLI or Crossfire: Maybe
Your Monitor Resolution: I will play @ 1920 x 1080
Additional Comments: Quiet and slick looking case
And Most Importantly, Why Are You Upgrading: Laptop is becoming old and overheats too much.
