I'm helping a friend to choose a CPU for his new rig (gaming pc) and i'm not sure what i should pick between :
AMD Phenom II X2 550 Black Edition 3.10 GHz skt AM3 box
HyperTransport 1800 MHz
Cache level 1 128 KB
Cache level 2 512 KB
Cache level 3 6144 KB
and
Intel Core2 Duo E7500 2.93GHz Box
Front Side Bus 1066 MHz
Cache level 2 3072 KB
I could also buy myself one of these two when i'll have the money.
So, what do you guys think?
I'm tempted to go with AMD because of it's 6Mb L3 cache and the price of course but i don't know if it's the wise choice.
