QUOTE(astria @ Apr 27 2009, 12:33 AM) well, if i look at history, the Phenom I once had problem, and needed to shut the L3 cache of 2MB to prevent data corruption... reports say that the CPU suffer a 15% hit in performance in extreme cases... it's gonna hurt in games, cuz games love cache... so it's either a Athlon II x4 or Phenom II x2 to choose in ur case... i would choose Phenom II x2 though, higher clock + the full 6MB L3 cache... i see....very complicated also.....so, for budget, i shud go for the phenom II rite?

Added on April 27, 2009, 12:36 amname of the station i would say for gamers, Phenom II is better than Athlon II, mainly due to the cache diffference... however, since both are not released yet, it's still hard to say...
