Good setup, but that's not what i asked And, US$2000 for that setup looks too much. But I don't know the other components. They might add up. And the motherboad doesn't support FSB1333MHz btw.

I only need the CPU info. Open another thread to talk about your setup.

Wewala? Nice ne.

Too bad the parts are expensive there. At least you have the parts no? Here, you have to be extremely lucky to find the parts as well as get a good deal.

And....that motherboard doesn't support FSB1333. There is only one chipset that supports that FSB, and it is not yet released to the market. nVidia nForce 680i is that chipset.

Yeah this is the best budget CPU out there. But, it consumes a lot of power to the performance it gives.

I hope to buy Intel Core 2 processor with ASUS gaming mother board.

Are you kidding me? I bought my last PC with a AthonXP 2600+ in 2003 May!!! At that time, they had the 2.4GHz and 2.53GHz Intel CPUs and 2600+ was the fastest at Rs.19,000.

You know, you will be better off with a good video card than a CPU upgrade, as you have onboard video. No point spending so much money on gaming components than the only thing that matters these days: a highend video card. 3GHz isn't too bad, and you can overclock it to around 3.6GHz if you are lucky and even more if you are really really lucky. 3.6GHz P4 can easily run every game out there at good performance.
