I know which one you are talking about but also the e6320 which is coming out will have more cache so wont that help speeds a little more or does it not make much difference if so i will get whatever can go the fastest


Either or. All in all it really depends on what you will be doing. You will most likely see an amazing overclock with the e4400.

If your overclocking (I can smell it with that motherboard)

Hey DaFox, how do you know the price will drop that far in april?

Q4 of this year is also rumored to have huge price drops, $266 for a quad core.

Yeah, but if you wait until Q4, you'll be waiting for the next huge round of drops after that. :) There comes a time when you just have to say, "Enough is enough - I'm buying." ;)

Once again i am having second thoughts of downgrading a pc and getting a basic notebook or just getting a notebook that is fast likea e1750 but then i dont know if it is worth the performance loss

Desktop in a Shuttle case, that way if you have to move it, it's not that big a deal.

Shuttle cases are too limiting and i have better chances going for a laptop
