what is the best possible dual cpu system?

[corvetteguy]

is dual cpu for gaming or work?
is it 939 or 940?
how big is it?
how much does it cost?
what's the point of dual dual core?
if no software can take advantage od dual core now, why quad core, unless decoding 4 dvds and playing fear and bf2?

Q: If I go and load an informational webpage then don't actually read the info there, can I still learn about it by asking random stangers 20 inane hypothetical questions instead?

A: Only if I'm a Canadian and I use a catchy topic title.

For the 939 I would pick the X2 4800, it's fast for both multitasking and gaming. 940 is cool but would be pricey because its still new.
