There isn't much room left to make it cheaper, if your budget is that low may want to consider an 8320

i cant reconsider my budget thats what i got i cant pull money out of thin air :loL:
if it doesnt work it doesnt work w/e i might grab a vid card instead and get these 3 at a later point in time
and the 4gigs of ram woulda been eventually upgraded to more 4g was just to get it goin and be able to play the games i got now

It is :E
How many cores does Cad use?

Could you consider the 3258 pentium? Same core performance as an I5 [once overclocked]. Just that its limited to 2 cores, so its only useful if Cad isn't made for 3+ cores.
Its also the same socket, so in 6 months would be very easy to upgrade to an i5 or i7.

what cad is something for pc? i meant CAD like canadian dollars $$ :lol:

im not really that pressed for an upgrade i got a q9550 cpu atm its a 4core 2.8 but the motherboard tech is gettin to out dated and will bottleneck any new vid cards i get :(
just trying to get a decent upgrade while not overdoing it but my friend was just at canada computers they have 2 mbs 1 for $80 and 1 105 difference is 2 or 4 ram slots both asus
the cpu is 239 and ram is $10 a gig imma try to squeeze some extra into the budget to get the 105 mb wit 4 gigs ram

the problem is the 13% tax that shit takes like a huge chunk of my budget out lol but this shits from like 2008 its time for an upgrade
