I am getting 4 more GB of ram for a total of 8GB so now I am looking into a better CPU, I have a LGA 775 socket and these are what can fit it, and here is a list of the best ones. I currently have an Intel 2 quad Q8200 2.3GHz. My budget is $100 or lower. If CPU effects power usage much I have 300W power supply with my current setup it is using an estimated 279W. :thanks:.
p.s. I prefer less cores because I like to play FSX (flight simulator) and it only uses 1 core.
p.s.s. Is it hard to switch out a cpu?
I use my computer for everything, I am a gamer but not computer intensive games although this is mainly because my computer most likely would not be able to handle it. Arma II for instance must be on lowest settings.
