I would look towards the 4 core set up. It is unbelievably great for multi operations going on. Do not let the 125w on the phenoms scare you. I have an after market cooler on mine and my cores stay very cool under high gaming situations. In short, I love the Phenoms.

Clocking these core is fairly easy. I have not done mine....no need. Runs like a champ.

Good to know. Thanks for the info. I'm thinking that by the time Windows 7 is released either later this year or early next year, my current mid range system will be 4 years old and just won't cut it.
