Hi All

Money is burning a hole in my pocket what I want to know is I can buy the C2D E6600 2.4GHz now or if I wait 1 month then I can afford the E6700 2.67GHz

Will I see much performance difference between these 2 CPU's - will be used for gamming

I will be using the following motherboard
Asus P5N32-E PLUS SLi nForce (Socket 775)

Grahics
Geforce 8800 GTX

Thanks for taking the time to reply
 
Thanks for the reply, its just it feels a bit like a backward step, I am currently using a P4 2.8 and I know that it is dual core...

Also what do you mean
buy the 6600 then overclock it, unless you want the unlocked multiplier

I have never OC before will it make it easier to OC the E6700 as you say the multiplier is unlocked
 
Ram I purchased from OC as it was on offer
GeIL 2GB (2x1GB) PC6400C4 800MHz Ultra Low Latency DDR2 Dual Channel Kit

Now I cant find the dam graphics card that I want,
I was after the Asus 880GTX but does not seem to be listed on OC I have asked if they will be selling it though
