AMD QuadCore Which 1?

[Jon3sy]

So right
Im buyin a new CPU mobo.. and Ram
but this is just about the CPU

Im not sure which one to have and i would like some help with it
I only want to spend around 300 less if i can
but i want a Quadcore so bad

So Can you tell me which i see much Diff between

AMD Phenom II X4 Quad Core 810 2.6GHz (Socket AM3)

nd

AMD Phenom II X4 Quad Core 955 Black Edition 3.2GHz (Socket AM3)

I know itz a BE so it would be easy to OC but i don;t do much things which are CPUage..

It will be for Avg use but for Game Aswell Because i got a 4850 at home
Games like COD4.. (MW2 when it comes out) odd Crysis and GTA4 and Render the Odd Vid With Vegas pro For youtube !

I have a 1080P monitor Think the BE one will help me with that Res?


So yh Think i will see much Diff Between both CPU i don't have loads of cash as im a student lol so think im best goin with the cheaper 1 and just OCin?

i will OC but do i really need to with a quadcore just for game mostly like COD4 and MW2 when ti comes out?
As i only eva play Crysis to show off to my friends lol...

Do you think there will be new 1s out in the next month or 2?

But it's just luck on if you can unlock the cores and if said cores are even stable enough to boot.

yh i heard that
thats why they are x2 and not x4 because some of the cores are faulty..
*not all* but you have to be lucky to get a none faulty 1

i want a quad core so it lasts longer and i neva had one and i did say if i upgraded i would deffo go fr a quad thats why i was asking if the low AMD quad was good or do i need the 150 quid quad core to see the power lol

i think im goin get the AMD x4 810 because it cheap quad core and from what som1 said as im not going to do anything which will max the CPU out it would be a waste plus it would take me abit longer to save up for it ! so thanks for the help
