Hi there, I currently have 2 Core2Duos, a a E7400 and a fast E8400. I'm probably giving one to my friend for his CPU rig.
I have about $300 to upgrade my computer.
Should I upgrade my core2duo to a core2quad:
1. Q9450
2. Q9550
3. Q9400
or sell my 775 components (CPU, mobo, RAM) for $300 and get a new mobo/DDR3 and get a i7 920?
My main wish is to play games at high resolutions with SLi while running a bajillion programs/adware * avg scans in the background...and I want my PC to be good for at least 3-4 years to come.
So what route should I take?
