Don't need spend too much buy Intel quad core. It own MB chipset outdate too fast (P35 -> X48 -> ??) and IGP performance very bad.

My pc run 24/7 days BT/Emule without switch off and only for DVD Authoring

I will consider powerfull IGP MB (780G) +Phenom CPU.
At least faster 20-30% from my previous AMD X2 4600 + 690G.

Quad Core Showdown: AMD Phenom X4 9850 vs. Intel Core 2 Quad Q9300

http://www.extremetech.com/article2/0,1697,2282395,00.asp




The Core 2 Quad Q9300 is an interesting beast, as it only has half the L2 cache per die of the more expensive quad core CPUs in Intel's product line. For example, the Core 2 Quad Q9450, clocked at 2.66GHz, has 6MB of L2 cache per die, or 12MB total. But the Q9450 also costs about $80 more, so the Q9300 is aimed at a more budget-minded audience who might desire quad-core performance.

Of course, AMD's Phenom X4 9850 Black Edition is even more affordable, at $235, give or take a few dollars. The X4 9850 is a 125W TDP part, while the Q9300 is a 95W TDP processor, and both seem to be fairly overclockable, though the edge in overclockability most likely lies with the Intel CPU—that 45nm high K plus metal gate technology has been quite the boon for overclockers.

no heatpipe .. just normal type. Sorry , i can't take out .


I suppose install windows everything yesterday , because of update to SP3. Most software , driver can't install So, reformat again .

No. I don't want OC and need stable PC. ~

If no 3D Display Card and use active-PFC PSU (below 500W) should save a lot .
