I was gonna ask something about that! Many people are using quad core Xeons instead of Core 2 Duo. Why is that? What are the difference(s) between the two? Aren't they the same cores?

723515 2008-12-15 00:03:00 Question: If your CPU has a FSB of 1066 your MOBO has a FSB of 1333 and your RAM has a FSB of 1066, must you overclock your FSB of your CPU in order to overclock your ram only up to a maximum of 1333MHz and then you need to over clock your MOBO higher to overclock any thing else more?, though I am not going to overclock to i really need to. James281 (13409)
723516 2008-12-15 00:04:00 James281 just get whatever is the cheapest brand of 1066MHz ram with CL5 5-5-5-15 that you can afford and stop pussy footing around and wasting our time and you trying to get your post counts up.

And dont even think about overclocking I will not go through a 100 post !@#$%^&* holding your hand and helping you on that topic!!!:annoyed:

We have been holding your hand and helping you to decide on what stuff to buy for your computer and I and I believe others would not give a dam if you did something wrong and stuffed up and or destroyed a component or your computer.:badpc:

Dont take any offence with what I have said I am just telling you the way it is.:thumbs:;)

Either man up and take it or get of the internet and have a cry to mummy.:crying

Easy there bud. James is obviously a newb. I remember when I was. I think I may have annoyed pctek on the phone before she moved down to South Island a couple of years back.

I remember asking her newb questions. Fortunately for me she tolerated my stupid newb stuff. :lol:

1. Really good overclockers!!!:thumbs:

2. One is ment for Joe public,the other for servers,business etc.

3. They are the best cpu to get:better tested,run cooler-so better for overclocks.

4. Oh before I forget THEY ARE REALLY GOOD OVERCLOCKERS!!!:thumbs::banana:clap

723522 2008-12-27 10:55:00 Im ordering every thing before the 31st, but have no idea weather to go duo core or quad core any more.

Help me decide. For gaming. Budget was... 300-400.
E8400 $319 CL(computer Lounge)
E8500 $350 CL
Q6600 discounted
Q9300 discounted
Q9400 $473 OCZone $537 CL
Q9450 discounted
Q5500 $624 OCZone $646 CL

Would like to upgrade CPU in 2+ years time.
A Q9550 is going to high, which out of the 3?
With i7 Cpu's with 8 cores it makes me even more to get a quad, as games will even more likely to benefit from more cores better then before with a lot more cpus with a lot of cores that they have on the market.

I just dont know what to get!
