As Praetor said, the second PC is MUCH better. The Pentium D 920 cannot compare with the X2 4200+.

wonder why... maybe because it wasn't that popular or great. nforce 4 should do fine, or nforce 4 SLI.
id say get a dual core athlon 64 X2...
and maybe a motherboard with SLI and SATAII...
and get a 7800gt...
and some high speed ram... or not lol, but get 2gb of it if you wanna do heavy gaming. that should last you a few years at least (i know my comp wont run quake 4 maxed because it takes like 1.7gb of ram or somethin like that)
