Just thought I'd mention, it's not all about the clock speed, far from it. If anything, I'd ignore the clock speed of any CPU, just go for de facto reviews of how fast it is. It's pretty easy to sum up:
Any Athlon X2 is better than any Pentium D
Any Core 2 Duo is better than any Athlon X2.

Just use the tomshardware guide. That's pretty good for comparing CPUs.

Unless you live in the UK, in which case you have to go specifically to http://www.tomshardware.com/us/
The UK version of the site is a shoddy rip off of the US site, but all the graphs are wrong, half the links are broken, and half the articles never uploaded.

man you guys really have it bad!
You know while we are on the subject of PC prices. My cousin back home in Pakistan recently purchased a computer. It was a E4500, 80gig HDD, 2 gigs of RAM, a 600W PSU, and a case. I don't know what video card. He got the whole PC for the equivalent of 250 USD.

You can get that lot without the PSU for about £140 here, so not too bad. It rather depends what the PSU was though.

Is your budget two thousand dollars? You live in the US right? So you can use Newegg.

No graphics cards come with composite adapters for the TV. However, most have S-Video ports and often come with an S-Video to composite video adapter (the yellow connector) so you can attach them to TVs. Only the yellow connector is video. Red & White are for the sound, so to use those you need a 3.5mm -> RCA adapter. These are quite cheap and can be purchased from any electronics store.

Except for the fact that it will look HORRIBLE. Most video cards come with a DVI port. If you have a HDTV then just get a DVI to HDMI adapter and connect it with a HDMI cable.

I would guess if he has an HDTV he wouldn't be asking for composite video. Composite is about the lowest quality method of standard def TV, let alone HD.

Yeah but what if he doesn't know any better? He mentioned somewhere before that he had a budget of 2 grand. If a person can afford a two thousand dollar PC, I'm guessing he probably has a HDTV.

Not necessarily. I don't own an HDTV. But yeah, I take your point, it pays to tell people.

So what is your real budget? If you're using anything less than a HDTV the computer will look horrible. Just get a real monitor.

Does your TV have an S-Video input? If it does, just use a straight S-Video cable, which the GPU should come with. Oh by the way these cables will probably only be included with a retail graphics card, so avoid buying specifically Ati or Nvidia cards, go with ones with brand names, such as HIS, Sapphire, Gigabyte, Asus, XFX, BFG and EVGA.
