Sorry, another question.

[CustomHobo]

which is better for gaming?

Pentium® 4 Processor 670 with HT Technology (3.80GHz, 800 FSB)

or

AMD FX57

any advice?

thx in advance

AMD FX57. There is no doubt at all.

But why blow so much money on a processor? Gaming wise, you'd be so much better off getting a slower processor (and perhaps overclocking to near / past FX speeds) and spending the saved cash on a top of the line Graphics card.

I already have dual 7800s

Im trying to go ultimate here, haha.

Water cool it then.

Water cooling isn't extreme enough. LN2 it!

If you base your opinion on benchmarks then the fx57 is the way to go. If not then just base it on whether your current socket.

 

[dontyouknowwhoIam]

sorry i meant to say, base it on whichever will fit into your current socket, if indeed they will. If you already have a socket 939 then i think the wise choice (IMO)would be to get something compatible with that...4400?
