8800gt

would I have to buy a new mobo if i wanted to get a dx 10 gfx like the 8800gt.I got an asus a8n-sli

-___O

nope

As long as you have an open slot, you're fine.

I'm also thinking of buying a new cpu plus mobo ofc

8400 vs q6600

-___O

8400 for games q6600 for multitaskings both are good for games thought

i just got 8400 from microcenter for 149.00

gotfrag makes my trigger finger itchy! e8400@3.6, ep45ds3l, 4 gigs, raptor x, 9600 gtoc, xonar

8400 ftw

Intel e6750 / Asus p5k / 2GB Patriot / 8800 gts 640 / 250GB / Antec 900 Case / Corsair hx520 PSU

what #5 said. if you're into more than just gaming, I would probably go with the q6600.

8400... no questions asked

Get the 9800GTX+. It's a good bang for your buck GPU. It's 199.99 on Newegg.com Would buy another...EVGA = Step Up.

depends on how much money you have, but if you're looking at an 8800gt get a 4850

8400 is the best deal around imo

#MexicanGiraffes

if you want an e8400 and ati 4850 combo, you're going to have to buy a new mobo (any P35 or P45 by msi, gigabyte, or asus is fine). correct me if im wrong, your current mobo only supports amd cpus?

E8400 without OCing, Q6600 with. Also, 9800GTX+ beats HD4850 slightly in benchmarks.

#16 You're right lmao :P
So, #1 you have to buy another motherboard if you want to step up to Intel. Ofc you can buy another AMD processor...
