im a little confused
think of me as a total newb to computers. i have had the same comp for 5 years and it is time to get a new one. i have always delt with software and not to much with hardware. there are alot of new cpus coming out and i need to know what is best to buy but before i do that i need to know what is going on. when i bought my computer thhigher the cpu speed the better the preformance. now there are cpus coming out that run at 1.6 ghz that say they out preform comps at 3.o ghz. and the whole thing about duel core cpus. will a duel core running at 2.8 ghz be better than a p4 runing at 3.2 ghz i am really confused. and sorry for sounding so stupid.
