Default Re: Which Config Is Better????

The second rig will be much better than th first one, E6300 is no doubt better than X2 3800+ but there is a lot of diff in card, and i would also suggest a dual core not, new games dovwloped will be multithreaded, and it will be hard for a singlw core procy to keep up, X2 3800+ is a good choice, people are going mad about conroe, but are not looking at the whole picture, intel has played a really tricky card here, the processor prices are low, but look at all the chipsets supporting conroe, intel is selling them at high prices, motherboards are costly, so at the end, u land up the same place, the picture is soon going to change though when nVidia releases it's chipsets fore conroe.
