I'm looking to buy a new CPU, one which would hopefully last me two years before upgrading.
I'm a bit undecided whether it would be better to go the X2 route or stick with a single core CPU for the meanwhile. I'm aware that I might not see that much benefit from an X2 CPU at the moment (I've got a AMD 64 3000 currently), but do you think I would start to see more benefits as time goes on?
The game I'm probably going to play the most when it comes out is UT2007 and I'm wondering if that would take advantage of a dual core CPU...
One final question does anyone know if the 3800 X2 CPU is a good overclocker?
Cheers for your help.
