Well I say straight out the X2 6400 is unless you get a dual or Quad 1207 board a and run 2 or 4 FX-74

If you are building a new computer then why not get E6750 or Q6600 ?? Both perform better and overclock better. E6750 is about $70 cheaper than 6400+ on newegg

If you want a Intel the 6750 has a sweet price point to performance right now.
