Well im kinda in a little predicament. Im planning on build a new rig with my upcoming check, and need to keep it under $400ish.
So what im looking at is a combo deal with Asus M4A785TD-M Evo, and either the X3 450 for $148 or the X2 555 for $152.
What would be a better deal?
Gonna be doing alot of gaming, GTA series, BFBC2, MOH, So I was kinda thinking about the X3 450, since im guaranteed 3 cores. But at the same time I could take the chance and get the X2 and hope to unlock all four cores.
I know the motherboard is pretty decent at unlocking as I had its older brother M4A785TD-V Evo, and it unlocked my X3 435.
What would you guys do?
Rest of system will probably be:
4gb Gskill ram DDR3 1333,
and a
HD5830
