Newegg is not an option where I live unfortunately. Most of the parts I get are almost double of what they cost in the states. How much of a performance hit would that be exactly? I have a Athlon LE-1640 2.6GHZ currently and while it's fine for most things, it's my biggest bottleneck when it comes to gaming. I could get an Athlon X2 black edition 2.9GHZ for a bit cheaper and that's sure to work. Would that be a smarter choice?
