Hi again.

After doing some search on new Processors and MB my friend told me if i want the "best of the best" - or atleast very close to it i should be going with the following :

Processor :

Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 2.4GHzSocket LGA775, 8MB

Motherboard :

ABIT IP35 PRO, P35, Socket-775, ATX,Silent Otes2, 2xGbLAN, DDR2, 2xPCI-Ex16

Combined with Windows Vista Home Premium 32Bit.

My current setup is : Intel P4 3.4Ghz

Nvidia GeForce 8800GTS 320mb

2GB Kingston HyperX 675Mhz DDR2

With the new Processor / MB - do you think this PC will be able to handle the future of gaming? e.g Crysis etc.

Sure would, though I'd go with a E6850. The higher clock smashes the Q6600 face when it come to anything gaming related. Get the quad if you do a lot of video/image editing or anything of the sort. Otherwise, I don't believe it will make that much of a difference in future games.kodex1717

Intel Core 2 Duo E6850 3.0GHz 1333MhzSocket LGA775, 4MB

This one you mean? Another question while we are at it. Some folks say that Intel isn't worth it, that AMD fully pwns it. I don't have enough experience to agree or disagree, what would you say? Would the processor you adviced be the best bet for a heavy gamer like myself? :)

Whoever says that is living in the past ,or future, but not the here and now.

As of now Intel is the way to go, unless you are on a strict budget.

Intel Core 2 Duo E6850 3.0GHz 1333MhzSocket LGA775, 4MB it is then!

Thanks guys. Hopefully this will be worth the money!
