if you can find out the socket type and motherboard brand of your new PC, then its easy to look for future upgrades

the problem with Intel is that you pay te extra money for something that isnt much better. every machine we build comes with an AMD 64 3500+ which is the AM2 socket :thumbs: we never bother with intel tbh

As long as the AMD is socket AM2 then yea id say its better. If its 939, your ram is now DDR rather than DDR2 which it probably would have been with the intel.
