Gonna have to give a lot more info on what you are using the system for. But you aren't getting anything thats 45nm..

definately get dual core for the future. and i think the best bet would currently be AMD. The processor that is best bang for the buck right now, as i see it, is the 4400+ or the 4200+. Supposedly the 4400+ would be better because of the higher L2 caches, but i dont know how big of a difference that would make.

I plan on doing gaming and video editing. I want the fastest processing power to handle large files.
