[QUOTE="AtlBo, post: 594351, member: 32547"] What kind of gaming do you do? It looks like you got what you are looking for with the PC you chose. I used a core 2 duo PC for 3 years that benched at 1250. It was fine with less graphics power than you have. I ran Quake 3, QuakeLive, Half-Life, System Shock 2, and even Silent Hunter 4, which is very heavy for its day. Still have the PC, and it runs 1080 video but not great, but yours will do much better. Next time you get a PC, you got to try an i5-2400 or 2500. Those processors are so underrated. The 2400 benches at 6000 and I think the 2500 is around 6500! If you get a PC to that point, processor isn't likely to bottleneck much of anything. Maybe even better, the motherboard for the HP 6200 Pro here with the 2400 supports 6 GB/sec hard drives and data transfer, meaning it will handle 6 GB standard drives or SSD. This one came stock with a WD 6 GB standard disk drive. :cool: [/QUOTE]
