i want to buy a new computer, but i want a good processor--dual core, that will run very well when i upgrade to windows vista
I face a couple of options-- Pentium D, Intel Core 2 Duo, Athlon 64 X2, and the new multi core processors from AMD&Intel coming out in 2007
I need a computer that can be future proof for 3 years at least, equal, similar, or better than the specs of the HP m7490
The thing is, im trying to get a good dual core processor thats up to date...seeing that core 2 duo uses 40% less energy and is 40% better in performance--i like that
The core 2 duo is my top choice, but I want it ASAP in hp or some good manufacterer w/ specs comparable to the hp m7490-- im very confused on when those will hit shelfs at best buy or net
so, which processor should i get? i need a processor that has performance similar to pentium d 930 or 940
I also need it to not cost too much
on the side note, does anyone know the prices for each edition of vista upgrade?
