This system will run dual moniters, will that video card work?
 
Just generated a question will 64 bit system still allow me to run software like microsoft office and games i run on my 32 bit system
 
awww no 8800 gts , id go for that ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, if u could spend a could hundred more eh ?
 
alright, as far as budget it dosen't matter as long as it isnt stupid high like under 2000, and it will be used as a workstation and play basic games like the sims or sim city

maroon1:
will that chip and motherboard allow for 64bit operation?

or
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814130084
or for that matter anything under $200

going with http://www.newegg.com/product/Product.asp?item=N82E16819103191 (6400)
and
http://www.newegg.com/product/Product.asp?item=N82E16820145034 (dual channel memory 2gb)
should give a little more cpu and better ram as they are on sale together.

Yes

All Core 2 Duo processors are 64-bit


If I were you I would never get AMD 6400+, because the Intel E6750 is better performer and cheaper
