It's old technology now. AMD are about to release a new processor architecture to take on Intel who seem to be far out front.

I Never knew that,John Y
anyway I don't like new stuff(too pricy)
Intel have always been ahead of AMD anyway. Intel make a 5 odd billion at least over amd.
Also I don't need the latest stuff because i don't play games on a 22inch lcd. I only have a 17inch CRT! Yes thats right!
Also a X2 3600 is only £45!

Although you do need a decent processor for a good gpu I think because it would do poorly with a low processor and vice versa

Monitor does affect the display, a dodgy monitor won't give you very good colour and the blacks will look 'washed out'. Whereas a good monitor won't have these problems.

I know about this because I have said cheap dodgy monitor.
