Well, I will be buying a dual core amd cpu and im not sure which ones. I will definitely be overclocking, but I dont really want to spend a lot. Is the 3800+ good and can it be overclocked a lot? or would a 1mb cache or 2mb cache make a lot of difference then the 512 cache that comes with the 3800+
thanks
 
so which one should be better, I will be overclocking but I dont want to spend £60 more. Should I get a single core 144 and make it to around fx57 speeds or should I get a 3800+ x2 and get it to around 2.6 ghz if i can?
