Which processor should I get?
I plan on using my new buld for gaming and I'm wanting a faster computer than my TouchSmart with a Turion X2 64.
I also don't want to spend more than $100 on it, and thus far I have compiled a list of processors that I'm good with having. But I want to know what would be the best deal, with the price and performance ratio.
Athlon II X3 @ 2.9 GHz
Athlon II X2 @ 3.1 GHz
Athlon II X4 @ 2.6 GHz
Phenom II X2 @ 3.1 GHz
Athlon II X4 @ 2.8 GHz
Phenom II X2 Black Edition @ 3.2 GHz
Athlon II X2 @ 2.8 GHz
I plan on staying away from Intel, simply because I've had bad experiences with them. If there are even better ones then that, I need one that is compatible with Socket AM3, and uses no more than 140W.
