It is when you spend USD500 on a graphics system that a cheap USD100-150 CPU doesn't sound quite right, and you need to spend USD300 or so on the CPU <img src="/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/default/P.gif"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":P" title=":P    :P" data-shortname=":P" /> For a USD150 VGA, why would you spend USD300 on the CPU? Spend USD150 and get the best out there. That's for the balance. <img src="/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/default/happy.gif"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":)" title="Happy    :)" data-shortname=":)" /> My choice is E7300. You can easily get it to around 3.6GHz on stock cooling. That's faster than anything out there at stock. Even the E8600 will not be faster than that at stock, and that's more than two times expensive. You decide. It is not our money <img src="/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/default/D.gif"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":D" title="Big grin    :D" data-shortname=":D" /></blockquote>
