Hi chaps,
I haven't built a PC in the last 2 years or so - the last one was a AMD XP 2500+, 6800GT, 1GB type PC.
Now I'm considering building a new one (somewhere in teh £300-400 region) as mine is getting sluggish with games and photoshopping despite reinstalls etc.
I don't want to ask someone to spec me a system, as that just seems lazy (but feel free if you'd like), but what I really don't get is what all these intel processor names are about. For instance, on Scan's Today Only, I could get either a Core2Duo 6320 or 6550 for essentially the same money - how do I know which is better? And how do I go about comparing with the speed I have now? How I miss the days when they were all called "2500+" of "P4 3.2" - where it all sort of made sense and was easier to know what you were comaring to!
Many thanks if anyone wants to help clear this up for me!
Alex
