Ok, its time. I gotta replace this old dinosaur (Pentium III , 650mHz) with something new.
I admit it , I don't know crap about these new-fangled processors so I'm asking for your opinions.
Everything's Vista now so that one's settled. But from what I've read I'll need a minimum of 2 GB ram to run it right.
Before anyone says it....NO I'm NOT going to build it on my own...I'd end up with something that looks like a half-built Mouse Trap game , and a migraine. So....NO.
I don't need a NASA command center, I'm just looking for a good mid range computer that'll be upgradable as needed and last a few years.
Here's some of the one's I've been looking at.....
HereIn the comparison charts it looks like the Athlon processors are much faster than the Intel.
Is this AMD Phenom triple core any better or just hype? < Ram can only go to 4 GB though.
What's the difference in Level 2 and Level 3 cache?
Gonna use it for Word, Excel, PowerPoint , work stuff. Kids are tired of wa...ting....f..or...their.....ga....mes ....to.....load.....<<blue screen--kernal error>>
