I’m building a Custom PC for Gaming and Modern Warfare 2, What Processor Should I Get?

I’m looking for cheap but good.

AMD or Intel?

I’m Planning on finding the Processor, finding a Motherboard and then Graphics Card, Power Supply and than Last but not least Case :D

cheap and good don’t really go together in the pc world….but there is a great AMD cpu that is cheap…the Phenom II x2 550BE…..its only 99.00 bux…..it has 1mb of l2 cache and 6mb of l3 cache running at 3.1ghz……..its a great overclocker as well…..AM3 80w tdp…..

if you wanna go with a quad core the Phenom II x4 955BE is excellent also for the money….im running it now overclocked to 3.8ghz with a 4870 and play games on all high….play grid on ultra high….so you might wanna check out those 2 pc’s of hardware…

955——-http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819103674&cm_re=955_be-_-19-103-674-_-Product

4870——http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814161292&cm_re=4870-_-14-161-292-_-Product

also make sure you get a good brand name power supply….i prefer ocz,corsair,antec,enermax and silverstone……gigabyte motherboards are also very good….might wanna check them out to….cases, the antec 300,900,902 and the 1200 are very good with great airflow….the haf 922 is a great case also…..

sorry i rattled on….just some things to check out………
