I have two machines that I generally use to game:
System 1:
Core i7 - 920 processor
EVGA E758-A1 3-Way SLI motherboard
6gb memory
Nvidia BFG GeForce GTX 280 video
Running Windows 7 Ultimate 64
System 2:
Intel Core 2 Extreme 2.66 - processor
Nvidia NForce 680i - motherboard
4gb memory
Nvidia...
What exatly makes the Intel Core 2 Extreme stand out in performance above say a Core 2 Quad.
I have a Core 2 Quad Q9300 so if i fitted a QX9650 what differences would i see apart from the price!!!
I know my mobo will accept this processor but the price is putting me off.
