Sorry, the 6400 is $224.00 right now on newegg. The 6600 is $317.
The only thing that's holding me back from opening my wallet right now is the question: what to do with my current rig.
1. Sell it.
2. Keep it as a backup.
Thanks for the responses guys. You're right, buy budget isn't that large and agreed that a C2D system would be better. I believe the 6600 is $222.00 if I'm not mistaken. For $40 more, it's a lot more processor for the money.
I would like to get 2gigs of memory though for gaming. Which...
I am looking to build a new system with the money that I received from Christmas and such. Here is what I have so far.

CNQ - No.
File indexing - How can I find that out?
AVG - I just reset all of the preferences to stop all sorts of scans and set them to run weekly instead of daily.
Thanks for the link. I formatted a fresh copy around 4 months ago. I have all Windows Updates. I asked a friend of mine and said that a motherboard bios flash could cure it, but I have the latest bios already. I'm stumped.
Ok here's the problem: When I open my task manager I only have 29 processes running without my music and internet. Yet, my CPU usage percentage NEVER goes below 36%.
My specs are as follows:
AMD Dual core 3800+ Manchester (not overclocked... yet)
2 gigs of Corsair ValueSelect CAS...
I have an ATI All In Wonder X800 AGP that has never been overclocked in excellent condition.
I am upgrading my motherboard and going PCI-E and am looking for a 7900GTX.
If anyone is interested or would like to ask a question about price, feel free to PM me.
I can't seem to find the right chipset drivers for my EPoX motherboard. I just reformatted Windows XP Professional with SP2 and I lost the CD with all my drivers on it.

This is the motherboard I have, and I have a dual core...
If that is the case, did this person need to do any type of modifications to make it fit, or no.
I remember a friend saying that some Zalman coolers need special types of adapters for their products. I'm unsure if this is true or not.
I posted this question in a different part of the site and got no good responses. It seems that all of the Zalman coolers and such don't fit the AIW series. I'm gonna keep looking though and bookmark this thread hopefully someone will have some advice for us.
Yes, actually I did. The reason I posted was because I would like to know which is the best one. There are a few good ones up there, but none of them sound like the best. Each of them have their own advantage. If someone were to simply say, "X is the one that will help you out the most." That...
