Which would be the best if I bought a system with a 256MB graphics card and 1GB RAM. I will buying this new system by the summer and dont know which to buy. My current computer already has a 256MB graphics card and 1GB RAM but I want a faster and want to switch to PCI express and I really need a bigger HD so I dont have to worry about deleting big files I might want later.

obviously the 2.8 ghz Dual-Core is better..Just make sure you get the proper cooling :D

I don't know where you are looking but for a little more money i found a 3.0ghz Dual-Core

Personally I would go with an AMD dual core over any Intel.
Either way, you haven't given much info to go on, how much money do you have to spend? are you doing a self build? or getting an off the peg jobbie? what hardware do you have that can be transferred over? and your HDD needs to be bigger (how big is the one you've already got?)

I would probably buy it already built for $800 - $1,000 not including a monitor or printer or any other periperals. And I dont want an AMD. My current HD is 80GB and from the limitations I have now, so I know I want atleast 120GB
