I need to buy a new computer, and I know these are the most important things I should evaluate: CPU, memory and GPU (if you want to play games).
It's been a while since last time I studied all the component's features to evaluate which product is good and which is bad, so I can't really judge myself right now. And I knew little anyway.
So, which particular features should I be paying more attention in order to know if some computer's CPU is good or bad? As long as I know, the frequency and number of cores. But I also know that the frequency is not necessarily a "reliable" sign since each platform works at a different rate.
So could you help me out and give me some tips in which I should look at in order to judge a CPU?
