[QUOTE="hofuldig"]i was thinking about that but i just bought my LGA775 Mobo a few weeks ago so i dont think it would be worth it to upgrade to i7 just yetadamosmakiImo i suggest staying with the 8400 get a good aftermarket cooler ( i like coolermaster and arctic cooling zalman is also good but a bit expensive ) and overclock it ( it will go easy to 3,6-3,7 ghz).If he takes that route, I can vouch for the Arctic Cooler Freezer 7 Pro. Its cheap, performs great (especially when you consider price) and uses the best, at worse, second best, thermal paste on the market. If you don't mind push pins, I definitely recommend this.

so hd 3650 and 8800gt are insert in agp slot or in pci ?Hashim19There may be an AGP version of the 3650, but the 8800 GT is definitely PCI-e only.
Is a little faster than the 8400 but nothing that can justifies 200 ( i think it cost 200 ) to change from the 8400. Software including games they usually dont take advantage of 4 cores with a few exceptions ( only recently software that is optimised for 4 cores appeared). Even if a game is optimized for 4 cores the 8400 is one of the fastest dual core and one of the fastest processors overall so imo either you should stay with that processor or if you have money you can go to the new intel platform ( x58 motheroboard and an icore7 cpu) which offers significant speed boost over past cpu's including the latest quad cores like q9550adamosmakiThis. I agree with this.
[QUOTE="Lewisite"]Well, to be fair, cows were saying it alone would crush the 360's 09' line-up with nary a thought of this possibly happening....and you believed them?Also*
Before all the lemmings come in here making asses of themselves (looks like it is already happening). Show me where officialy it was announced (and please provide multiple credibile Sony sources) they said this game would definitely be here in 09.
