HI All,
I am pretty happy with my current set up (see below) but wondering if a process upgrade would help in editing video and music? I also like to play games. I have a chance to sell my current processor for a decent buck which is why I am asking. Is it a simple plug/play affair to do the swap?
Thanks!
J.

System.
ASUS A8N sli Premium mobo, AMD 64 3700 San Diego, Maxtor DiamondMax 10 6B250S0 250GB 7200 RPM SATA150 HD and OCZ EL Platinum Revision 2 1GB (2 x 512MB) 184-Pin DDR SDRAM DDR 400 (PC 3200) Radeon X800XL 256MB 256-bit GDDR3 PCI Express x16 Video Card .
 
for editing, yes, but not enought to be worth the upgrade unless you sell the 3700sd to buy the x2. games arent using dual core yet, so i wouldnt know the difference in that field.
