Get a 8800GT. Not sure about the CPU pick, because I have no idea what AMD's division in charge of processor naming is smoking. My System: 日夏子

| What are you using your computer for games? If so, and even if not, i would personally ditch the 8400s and get an 8800GT or if your budget doesnt strech an 8600GT/S. One of these cards will well outperform two 8400s. Are you keen to stick with AMD? Intel currently have the edge on processors. Maybe the E4500? |

| Well I've always used AMD, except one laptop I have which has a P4, and never had any probs with them. Thanks for the Graphics help, I'll keep looking.. |

| Will you use your PC for gaming? If so, what resolution will you be playing games at? Also what kind of budget do you have? |
