Which is why I said it wouldn't be overkill if you're a gamerIt could be overkill is all you do is surf the web reading news or if just use Word... So, overkill is a term that depends on the use you plan to make.
I am planning on purchasing an AMD 6400+ black edition processor from newegg.com. Do you think that is an overkill, and if it it what do you recommend?
