I scored a q9300 tonight on ebay as a cheap upgrade of the e5200 box in my sig. I'm having regrets it's not worth the money or the hassle. I'm thinking 2GB ram is not enough for a quad core. It probably needs a new power supply as well. It's running a old Antec 350W one now. I was trying to avoid a new build and reinstalling everything. It's used for basic web surfing, WCG and iTunes storage. I was going to upgrade the family PC with it but ended up buying a Dell Vostro C2D box instead. Both boxes in my sig are secondary rigs for folding primarily and other stuff. Thoughts?
