specs are in my sig

|||||||
VVVVVVV

I was thinking about upgrading to a quad core and I know intel is on top of dual cores but what about quad cores?? i herd great things about the AMD and Intel quad cores but which one is actually better??? Im also debating on the new video card. I liked the 3870 and was hoping to go for the 4870 but idk anymore nvidia over all does seem to out perform ATI.

ok so pretty much wat I want is a new video card (better then the 3870) a quad cpu (if its worth getting) and a new mobo if nessisary to switch over to intel.

seeing as you are already with an AMB mobo, you might aswell get a 9950 X4 from AMD and do get a 4870, its superb

well switching over to an intel mobo wouldnt be that much of a problem if the intel quad core is THAT much better but if it really isnt much difference then i might as well stick with AMD
