Hi, im new to THG Community, althought i am a fan of THG for a few years now,,
i am building my next computer,, now purpose of use is for music, video editing, photoshop work, and high end gaming, i.e. Half life 2, Doom 3.
I have decided that i am going to go for a scoket 939 Amd processor, and i was wondering if the Amd 3800+ is overkill. I will be doing alot of gaming, and i am spending a fair amount on a new system ($3K USD). I live in canada and i can get this processor for ($875 CND). Althought the price may drop by $50-$75. I would like your advice on weither i should buy this.
**Note that i will not be building this system until sometime during late December, and by the the AMD 4000+ should be out. I want an extreamly fast processor and something which is the 2nd or 3rd fastest processor.
Thank You street.....
