Hello.

I´m getting a new PC and I´d need some help choosing CPU.

My PC is basicly for playing Low games that dosen´t affect the Video Card that much.

I'll need a fast CPU and I´ve come up with these two.

(the PCs cost both 850 $)

First one:Intel® Core™ i7-860 Processor

 

(8M Cache, 2.80 GHz)

Second One:Intel® Core™ i5-2400 Processor

 

(6M Cache, 3.10 GHz)

I would choose the Second one which is also a Quad-Core CPU but in a new and more future proof socket, plus it has a better intergraded grapchics engine.
