[weedfan]

[George Hallam]

The best CPU from intel (that uses socket 775) is

Intel Core 2 Extreme QX9770 (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819115051)

[Rick]

They get the best Price for it also
$1,469.99

When they remove the last 9
I'll get one or maybe two of them
$146.99 :)

[George Hallam]

What you want in terms of how good they are in performance?

it usally goes

C2Q Extreme
C2D Extreme
C2Q
C2D
Pentium dual core
Pentium D
Pentium 4 HT
Pentium 4
Celron

Xeon can be put anywhere in there they all have different powers like the Xeon E5450 has awesome power were as the Xeon 3065 does not have as much

this any good for gaming?

[George Hallam]

hmm not realy

if you took out the

1 gb Ultra (PC4200) ram

and replaced the

sapphire x1550 vga card

with a 8800Gt it you noticed a 400% performance increase ;)

[weedfan]

whats a good card? not too expensive....

[weedfan]

dude , the card u got is that over $300.00?

[George Hallam]

It was when it was knew, (i have had it for a year now) its $379.99 at the moment

there are newer cards such as the 9800GX2 but they are very pricey

a card such as the

8800Gt (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814150252) (midrange performance)

or

9600Gt (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814130334) (lower midrange performance)

may be in your price league?
