What is the best processer around at the moment? and for a good price, i need new parts and want more oppinions on what i should get, allthough i wont be gettin one maybe for a while so....
Probably an Opteron or Athlon 64. The Pentium 4 3.2GHz Extreme Edition is no slouch, but the other two CPU's are comparable and cost several hundred dollars less. How much are you looking to spend?
Right now the 2500+ offers the best bang for your buck. If you're into intel, you gotta' look at a P4 2.4C if you wanna' oc, or a 2.6C if you don't.
well i have been reading the reviews on the pentuim 4 2.4 and 2.6 and with the right motherboard i think...they can be overcloked to a 3.2/3.4 perhaps round there anywayz...thus saving you 150quid roughly .....is that good yes? or should i buy an amd?
If you want pure power, get the p4 2.4C and oc it. If you want bang for your bucks, try to get an unlocked 2500+
Exactly. IMO, it's stupid to alienate one side or the other. Both are plenty fast and stable. AMD tends to have the edge with pricing, but it's no longer the massive gap it used to be.
