I like the 300 better than the 900 personally. Also, I agree that current games will run faster with the Core 2 Duo, but games are moving toward being able to support 4-8 threads, so I went with that for longevity.Cryticfarm wrote:Should have gone with a better case and dropped the i7 with a core 2 duo E8400 and overclocked it like it's your ****.
EDIT:
LOL 1000 RPM.
I know, velociraptors are 10000RPM. How do you pronounce it anyway? I've developed the habit of vell-low-sir-rap-ter
