What CPU you got ?

[Dr. Bullet]

Forget intel...go AMD

[Roshi]

im running AMD Athlon 64 3000+ and it works great for any games

[atholon]

I have had much better luck with AMD systems than intel. Seems that AMD runs faster even though Intel says it has a higher clock speed.

[Scattergun]

Amd all teh way ever since i switched to an amd i am getting better proformance on games and it could be a switch from 64 mb gfx card to 2 6600 gt's Humm ""maybe""

and the funnest part ive got a dell and i never knew untill i just checked

Hehe my bro came over with his laptop Dell yesterday.

He has a p4 2.8 GHZ with HT, 512mb RAM and a Radeon 9700 and....we tried playing DF-X...my computer stomped his on loading times and installation of Call Of Duty.

amd 3400+ and i love it

[Mauser 98K]

intel P4 3.2ghz with hyper threading 1.5gb ddr pc2700 dual chanel and radeon 9200se

[Hellfighter]

i am running Pent 4 1400mhz.

but i can't say about AMD hear it can do a lot better you can run more software or doing many more thing then Pent 4 family can do.

Pent 4 it like you run one item at a time only.

AMD you can run more like 2-4 item without getting bog down any. at lease that what i hear anyways. it a blast
===========================================
my aunt has Winows Xp Pro AMD 2.8mhz system, her system running like crazy i hear the HHD burning or running all the time and writing to it, red light blinking off and on like crazy. it don't seem to rest any. no drawback i can name of? never crash she had it for a year now.

[Mauser 98K]

Prices have dropped!!! I bought my 1GB dual channel kit (PC3200) about 2 months ago for $130, now the same kit is $79!!!

Now is the time to buy! Woo!

ya i try to upgrade my CPU, RAM, and motherboard every year, sometime around december and april, and I am loving athlons, they run so nice, and you can run more than 1 big application at a time.

[Dr. Bullet]
