Your friend is an idiot. If he is talking about Intel, they arent the best for gaming. But 3Ghz is good.

1. AMD processors are the best for gaming. The best AMD processor runs at 2.6Ghz. So hes incredibly wrong.

2. The $700 comp looks good. Ecspecially with that X2 processor. At first you said that you had 1K, I would use any money you have to upgrade the GPU of that $700 comp, or the Ram.

Yea I wanted to get the $700 build to leave room for some small upgrades.

For gaming I understand that the main things you want is a good video card and processor? Am I right?

Now what is this dual core? I've never heard of that before, thats not running dual processors is it?

1. For gaming you want a good GPU, a good CPU, and sufficent ram which is 1GB preferably 2GB for newer games. But a nice soundcard is always nice

2. Dual core processors are not actually 2 processors, it is 2 cores in one processor. There is tons of information on it. Look in some of the stickys or on google.
