What's better for gaming AND wordprocessing, video encoding. I am looking for a CPU around $300 - 350, got a ASUS P5Q mobo and a 9800GT. Personally I don't know the difference between the Q9400 and Q9450 if anyone can bring that up too that would be nice.
I just bought some pc components and i put them together. Before starting up my new p.c desktop for the very first time is there anything to do with BIOS. I think i 've heard that you must update the BIOS of asus p5q pro before putting it to work with intel e8500. Is that true? I am new so...
