Which one?

Okay the Intel it is then :) As im not looking for the machine as a gaming one but mainly :

Application running, internet, downloading, watching programmes and music..

Intel Core 2 Duo E7200 LGA775 'Wolfdale' 2.53GHz (1066FSB)
OCZ 2GB (2x1GB)PC2-6400C4 DC Platinum Rev2 XTC Series DDR2
Samsung SpinPoint F1 640GB
Samsung SH-S223F/BEBE 22x


I will be running vista 64 and possibly overclock a little (really little amount)

First question:

1/ Will I need a diferent CPU cooler?

2/ Can I stick with 2gb of memory or go with 4GB?

3/ Which MicroATX motherboard as I have been told if I go with Intel the onboard GPU is not good at all?

4/ Decent SFF case and would I need a really good PSU than normal stock

Cheers guys!

Intel all the way. Especially if you want to overclock

Actually it is ONLY if you overclock, AMD will do better if you don't OC.
Stop being so sceptic about it being so bad, remember who feed you for all the years and gave us great CPUs and prices ;-).


Ofcourse I would pick E7200 and OC it, but there are still ppl that don't OC and then AMD is better choice for them.
 
i say say get amd.. hehe, just because im a fan of amd/ati.

but serious if u don't overclick then the 6000+ would be a better option....
