After the wedding next month i will be shopping around for a new chip. I have it narrowed down to two chips. The 4000+ and the x2 3800+. They are the s=exact same price here at the local shop.

Question is which one to get? I 95% only use system for gaming. I read reviews on them and the 4000 seems a little better for gaming but if i can oc the 3800 to get 2.4- 2.5 Gig as most are able on air then that shouldn't that do better than the 4000.
Thanks

I would say the single core for purely gaming, myself. But..........I'd probably buy the dual core for bragging rights.

It depends on what you use your computer for. If you strictly game and you only use it for one game at a time then get the 4000+. But if you like to do any multi-tasking then I would get the X2. And besides if you get the X2 then you would be able to kick out twices as many cands on D2OL as the single core. *wink wink nudge nudge hint hint*
