Hello.
I gave up buying a Core i5, and I will wait for 1 or 2 years. My Mobo is LGA 775, it supports Pentium Dual Core, Core 2 Duo, Core 2 Quad and, of course, Pentium 4.
My PC:
-Pentium 4 @ 2.9 GHz (Very good, 6 years of life without problems.)
-2GB DDR2 RAM
-Nvidia Geforce 9600 GT (My old GPU stopped working two years ago and I had to buy a new GPU. It explains components from different generations.)
I did the miracle of playing Sonic Generations with rare slowdowns on my PC. I need to buy a new CPU to play some PC games, such as TES: Skyrim and Dragon Age Origins. Core 2 Duo E6600 or Pentium Dual Core E6200 will be enough.
I want to play some low demanding PS2 games at fullspeed on stock, without overclock, and with all needed speedhacks.
-Final Fantasy X (Will the CPUs that I said above be able to run it?)
-Final Fantasy XII (What is the cheapest LGA775 CPU that is able to run it? )
-God of War 1 and 2 (Are they playable with a LGA775 CPU?)
A C2D E8xxx is very expensive for a simple upgrade.
I would like to play at least FF10, FF12 would be better. If GoW requirements are very expensive, I will give up on GoW for now.
Thanks
