Okay, processors...let's talk here. I'm customizing my own comp. I'm planning to go Intel. This is my MOBO:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16813131564
It's a CPU Socket Type LGA 775. It doesn't say anything about it being compatible with Pentium D's, but...
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produ...ce=&MaxPrice=&SubCategory=343&Submit=Property
Check those top three processors.
Now, they're Dual-Core. Will those run on the above MOBO, or not? They're Pent. D, but they're also LGA 775.
Thing is, the second Dual-Core there is 2.8 GHz. It costs $265.
This is a link to a Pentium 4:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16819116198
It costs $172 and is 3.0 GHz.
Now, the Dual-Core CPU is 200 MHz less, but costs only $93 more. Is that worth it, or is there something else I'm missing? 'cause from what I understand, dual-cores are WAY better than regular Hyper-Threading CPUs.
Help?
