What's your budget, what's your current PC config, and what do you want to do with your PC (e.g. play older games at acceptable frame rate, or play the latest games like Crysis on high settings)? I used to have an AMD 3200+ and went to an AMD Opteron 170 (dual core 2.00 Ghz CPU) and the performance boost was worthwhile. | ||
