How long do you guys think it will take for single cores to become obsolete in the way of 64bit gaming?
And another thing, When socket AM2 comes in s939 gear will come down in price soon after right?
Well I was thinking,
Would it be better to get an AM2 motherboard and processor and put my current hardware with it,
or
Get a s939 Dual Core processor (FX-60 or X2-4800) and replace my AMD Athlon 64 4000+?
The latter would be cheaper for me and gives me room to add another DVD drive or upgrade the GPU. But an AM2 computer with DDR2 RAM Would be better, am I correct?
Any help on this would be greatly appreciated. My parents will not be helping me finance my computer anymore, Well atleast not for two or three years.
