Hi all I need some advice. I currently have the rig in my signature except that the GFX card is a 7950. I am looking to upgrade to a dual core system. I won't be overclocking for a while and I am looking at either of the following chips with 2 Gb Ram:

AMD x2 5600+ AM2
Intel C2D E6600 conroe

My main use is for Games and also photoshop/encoding and web site design as well as internet surfing, but mostly games. Will I be right from what I have read that the Conroe is the faster for gamimg than the 5600+. Also will I see a improvement over my current system. Thanks.

Anthony
