Those processers arent really made for gaming, a C2D e6600 Intel is good enough already, and its way much cheaper than the extreme quad cores. Are you planning on custom building the computer? Or getting it built then shipped to you?boast wrote:StealMySoda wrote:boast wrote:two quad-core Xeon's and a dual socket asus motherboard.
thats maybe $900usd right there.
Aren't Xeon's for servers? :S

my processor is only a amd +4200 duel core, they are pretty old now but bioshock runs like a dream on it.
Games now are finally starting to use BOTH proccessors on duel cores (no, they didnt before, even when they were supposed to, like fear. They just used one whlie the other sat their idle or handled some other programs/services you have running) so slightly older duel core proccessors suddenly get twice as fast!
You might want to get something a bit better than that though if your expecting to play games like alan wake when it comes out, that will probably eat my processor alive, i need to upgrade for that

yet...
once multi-core programming gets going, it will blow dual-cores away. And might as well go big if you have $1500 to spend on a comp.
