I have a O.S and a 32" HDTV

Don't even think about the 5670, from benchmarks and reviews I've been reading about it, it should only really be used for HTPCs or low-end gaming PCs, it's not exactly brilliant, especially with newer games.
 
Hi,
This is just something i quickly put together. A 5770 should be good enough for most new games atm. This processor is a dual core but there is a chance it can be unlocked into a quad core :).
