What's a good CPU speed?
User avatar #92315 to #92313 - Timmietim (07/27/2012) [-]
what budget?
AMD is cheaper, intel is more expensive.
I have a 3.2ghz quad core personally.

Ehh, it doesn't really matter (just not put-you-in-debt-when-you-can-get-better-for-cheaper), I just need to upgrade badly because I have a 1.3 GHz. And if it matters, I have an AMD.

Well you may also need a new motherboard because this one is probably outdated as hell.
This one looks really good for the price AMD FX-4170

you need to mention that intel is also better, amd they just throw in so many cores, their 8 core is so unstable it sucks, and the intel 2600K beats almost every amd core but if ur a budget you pick amd but if you have money and want a sweet pc you go intel

2600k isnt needed for gaming. games dont use hyperthreading.
Also my amd quadcore is way better bang for the buck.

So what would you suggest?

Just finished searching , see other comment. You will need a am3+ motherboard. Those are not really expensive too.
User avatar #92344 to #92339 - bobbysmash (07/27/2012) [-]
Thanks, I'll look into it.

What sucks is that you need to reinstall your RAM and Graphics cards and everything. May i ask what GPU you have now?
User avatar #92359 to #92346 - bobbysmash (07/27/2012) [-]
AMD Radeon HD 6310 Graphics
User avatar #92362 to #92359 - Timmietim (07/27/2012) [-]
hmm that may need an upgrade too , what kind of games do you want to play?
User avatar #92366 to #92362 - bobbysmash (07/27/2012) [-]
I usually play TF2, L4D 1&2, mostly any Steam game. (I should just get a new computer, lol)
User avatar #92367 to #92366 - Timmietim (07/27/2012) [-]
Well with a new cpu and gpu, maybe some extra ram(cheap anyways) and a motherboard. wait that is kind of a new pc.
