Want to replace my x2 4400+ with intel

What do you recommend?

semi-pro waster · 12 Oct 2006 at 14:43

What is your budget, what are your uses and what (if anything) do you want to re-use from your existing system? If you can answer those 3 questions then I'm sure someone can help.

i will just need mainboard, cpu and memory for the new system, Budget maybe £500

what do you think?

6300, ds3, freezer pro or a ninja cooler, 2gig memory of your preference weeeeeeeeeeeeeeee :]

And will this outperform my x2 4400+?

It will obliterate it and I don't use Intel.

o.k. whats the ds3?

mikeymike · 12 Oct 2006 at 15:10

mobo, gigabyte DS 3 proven good OCing board for 6300, only has single PCI-e slot though, so if your SLI/crossfire then no good to you

I'd probably go for something like this then, the 6400 is clocked a little bit higher to begin with.
