6300 vs 8200

[renvilo]

Hi guys,

This is my system:

Vista X64
4GB OCZ DDR 800
ATI 4870 512MB
E6300

Is it worth upgrading to a E8200? I can do a trade for the E8200 for my chip and about 400 bucks... Will I actually see a perf. impr. Or should I rather save some money and go to quad?

Thanks

Overclock the E6300 to 3 - 3.2GHz and save up for a quad..

I'd go for it, 300 though, not 400.

Yeah, I took one to 2.8Ghz and you see a huge difference. Just get a decent cooler, and then you can save for a quad.

I suggest, just keep the cpu you have and save up for a high end quad unless u really need the extra Mhz.

Save for a quad, overclock your dual
