i need to choose one of thos CPUs but im not sure price isnt a matter but it has to be one of those. I was thinking the P D 960 duel core @ 3.6ghz would be better?

Thanks

Clock speed doesn't always determine performance.

1. Core 2 Duo would be better.

2. What are you using the computer for?

3. I would personally go with the AMD.

Well I would go with a Core 2 Duo if you want to replace your CPU you have now.

The X2 4600+ would be the best choice.

The X2 4600+ would be the best choice.

I think he already has a X2 4600+ and is asking us if he should upgrade.

I would get the e6600 and an 7900GT.

I would get the e6600 and an 7900GT.

Where did you get the 7900GT from?

I would also get the Core 2 Duo and one 7600GS.
