Attempt 4.2ghz Tongue and/or save up for a better graphics card + enjoy some pc games. Though both are dependant on time/money :/

That's always the problem. If you've got the time you don't always have the money. If you've got the money, there is always something more to get hold of but no time to fit it!  Tongue

Bah! Tell me about it, I know I don't NEED 4.2ghz on a gaming machine (there will be no difference whatsoever in games) But part of it is the challange and part of it is the bragging rights Tongue

Wouldn't it be easier to get  a dedicated gaming machine PS3, X-BOX or whatever? it would be cheaper.  Smiley
