Don’t Buy Single Core

Monday, April 28th, 2008

With the abundance of duel and Quad Core CPUs and the their decreasing prices, it is wise to stop buying single core CPUs. Current and coming PC games already or will support multi core CPUs and a single core CPU won’t cut it. So when you go out to buy a gaming PC, go for a minimum of duel core CPU and no less. AMD’s Athlon X2 series are dirt cheap now and they can be considered the minimum for a nice gaming experience. I personally own a AMD Athlon X2 6000+ which does my gaming absolutely well after I upgraded from my ancient Athlon 64 3200+. Seriously, the price itself is enough reason to buy a multi core CPU.

So when you go to your computer dealer, make sure you got a duel core CPU installed and not a single core CPU.

Fact: Xbox 360 and PS3 have multi core CPUs!
