Depends on the one you get. A Athlon 64 X2 is AMD and Core 2 Duo is Intel.

I just called it a duo core instead of a dual core. I have the AMD 64 4200+ dual core

I'm not that clued up on gfx cards but i know that the 8800gt is a monster. Nothing on my onboard gfx, but its ok. ( joking). Anyways what i meant was that there should be no bottlenecks in the system after u install the gfx card.

Another question. What does it mean dual core? Do both cores have 2.2ghz or is it just 2.2 in total?

Or would it be 4.4?
