That's the kind of advice I'd like to hear, I couldn't find any current
comparison articles between Intel and AMD - and the last time I kept track
of what went on in the magical world of CPU's AMD was the one to go for ;)
But I have to admit, that was around the time Intel had their Celeron's on
the market.

I am looking for the best thing, within a not too large budget - so I think
I'll take your advice on the i5.
So, this is the system I came up with:
CPU:Intel Core i5-650 3.20GHz 4MB S-1156Mainboard:ASUS P7H55-M/SI DDR3 mATX
S-1156RAM:4GB DDR3 1333MHz CL9 Geil (2x2GB)Grafikkort:1024MB ASUS GeF GT220
G DI DDR2 PCI-EHarddisk:500GB Western Digital 7200rpm 16MB SATA2Harddisk
SSD:40GB Intel X25-V SSD SATA 2.5 RetailKabinet:Cooler Master Elite 310
Orange/Sort u/PSUStrømforsyning:650W Energon EPS-650 120mmCPU Køler:Standard

And then I read Joep's message. Thanks for reminding me of TomsHardware.com
- I had totally forgotten about that site ;)
