Hi,
I'm looking to upgrade my old Dual core processor. My mobo is an AM3 socket so I'm looking at a Phenom six core. I want to get best bang for buck and I've been looking at this one.
AMD Phenom II X6 1055T 2.8GHz 6MB L3 Cache Socket AM3.. | Ebuyer.com
I'm a bit out of touch with processors so not sure if I can get something else a little cheaper, maybe a quad core? What are the benefits of quad/hex? I use my PC for gaming and I've got a 2GB AMD 6950 with 6GB RAM. So ultimately I'm looking for the best chip, for a decent price, which will give me a significant performance boost
Cheers
