Okay guys so i might be 10 years late on this question considering how old these CPU's are but still . I finally convinced my mum to buy me a desktop and im torn between two. I know people will tell me to get a better PC and increase my budget. Which is impossible.. Im getting the desktops for £20
I was looking at a Dual Core E2160 PC with 2GB's of DDR2 ram and windows 7 along with a 160GB hard drive now i know a thing or two PC's and i know that the E2160's a dual core with 1.8GHz on socket 775. I glanced over at another PC which roughly had the same specs i think but it was a celeron dual core and i guess it was cheaper. Ever since i've gotten home i've been thinking which one of them would give me better performance in games (SIMMER DOWN IM FAR FROM RICH. LIKE REALLY REALLY FAR) . And I believe it might be a Celeron E3400.. i dont think i'll be overclocking for now since the machines come with an intel motherboard, the E2160 machine had a 946 chipset though? (duno about the chipset on the celeron machine) I'll be running older games for now such as resident evil 5 and prototype 1 cod 4 and minecraft on a 1280x1024 resolution.. what machine do you guys think i should get?
