Planning on buying a new PC, how is this?

The thing is for what I'm gonna do with it (collage wise and job wise) hexacore already has an edge in that.. (photoshop layers, graphic design, media editing).. Since it is .. something differend I was afraid that it would suck on games,.. that's why I asked.

In that case a hexacore will help.
It still doesn't have an advantage in gaming yet though.

And about upgrading, don't worry. As long you'll get a 64bit OS you'll be set for a long time, unless they release the upgrade from PCIe soon.

Ah that's good to hear.

As for gaming, if it just runs games of this time good eneugh, and it'll last a while running games on good avarage (preffered high tho) quality I'm fine with it all.

Oh and hexacore is still dual channel ram.. is that bad?
