can i play games? Read* for my spec

[Rezard]

Well, I guess it's all about what games you're trying to play.
If it's just Kingdom Hearts, I guess they'll both be fine.

Just saying, I'm certain you'll find the E5700 a much better processor (and investment).

hey i just figured out that my motherboard say

ram: 1333mhz(oc)/1066/800 from what i have read the original max support is 1066mhz but if i change the settings on the bios i can make tht the motherboard support 1333mhz..? is that true?

also if i do that(overclock?) the system wont be un-stable ? or can get damaged? im planning to get these rams

It just means if you install 1333MHz ram it will work in overclocked mode, those boards were not designed originally to work like that and the (OC) message is just mostly a warning because of it but it's no problem (and yes you can just change the settings but doesn't mean it will change 800mhz ram into 1333mhz ram if that's what you expect ).

nah im planning to buy these rams check it out
http://www.ebay.com/itm/110749185706?ssP...1423.l2649

they are 1333mhz soo iwanna know if my mobo support them (looks like my mobo support them but i will need to change the settings first..) im right? correct me if im wrong. =)

also if i do the oc ram thing to 1333mhz will my pc gets damaged slowly? like lets say my pc lifetime is 5years if i do the oc thing my pc will decrease to 4years..or more?...>_<

It won't OC the RAM, the ram will run at it's normal speed

Yes, when you overclock ANY component it does reduce it's longevity but often it means instead of lasting 10 years it will do only 6-8, if you force it too much like increasing voltages to reach higher clocks even the longevity is reduced even more but that only happens when you do it without concern for proper cooling (even then it's risky tho ).

In the case of those boards tho they're made to run at those modes without affecting it.

yay. so im cool whit those ram and my mobo =) and about cooling my pc will have 3 fans 0_0 plus i use the air conditioner alot

[kenneth1800]

i have 160$ left and they are selling an core 2 quad 2.5ghz for 149.99? is this better than 5700? cpu....shoud i buy his one?

core 2 quad means(2.5,2.5ghz) (2.5,2.5ghz)(2.5,2.5ghz)(2.5,2.5ghz) ? or just 2.5 4 times?

Your C2Q is 4 x 2.5 Ghz.

If I were you I will never get a C2Q which is not only expensive but also outdated. A Sandy Bridge Pentium G cost around $80 and will outperform the C2Q in PCSX2. And its integrated Intel HD 3000 saves you from an entry level graphics card (around $50). You only need to spend a little more on the motherboard. Anyway it is up to your choice.
