i need a new cpu cuz i get **** fps and it makes me rage =[
what new cpu could i get?
preferably one from best buy / newegg.com

thanks =]

Anything but an eMachine...
If youre going to BestBuy try an HP(that's the best brand they have)
You could just upgrade your internet or whatever, or just go online and make your own computer
If your problem is just fps then just get a new graphics card.

go make the same thread on pchelpforum.

If your looking for a power supply, buy this.

Its 800w, 120mm fan to prevent overheating and you won't even hear it.

who the hell would need an 800w power source. my dads work computer uses 900 and thats pretty much the most power you can take with out going dual 5770s. most comuters will run just fine on a 550w power source

just buy something like a dual core processor or quad core if possible

he probably thought cpu = computer power unit xD

Really Kush?

How many FPS you want? I know a computer that would work really well but that also depends on how much you have to spend on it?

20 fps is a PROBLEM.


im looking for a processor :x

dude, there is no reason why u should only get 20fps... cf is supper bad in the sense that it looks super bad and uses super amounts of gpu and cpu to do it, but u should still be pulling atleast 60...

back on track, you are limited to what kind of cpu based on your socket type. also keep in mind u MAY need to get a diff power supply. Did u consider this when buying your video card?
i think the min req on the 9000 series os 400 watts while most computers come stock with only a 250-300..... not sure if using a underpowered power supply would cause issues or just not work at all. look into it.

ALSO skype should not effect your fps, specially when u got 3 gigs of ram.... most games use 100% of cpu because they are set as "priority applications" and this is not a bad thing. skype should use low cpu and a small amount of ram...and more importantly NO GPU when u are ingame.
There is the possibility that your computer is "junked up" as in sh.it tons of useless registry entries and dumb poinltess resource hogging back ground apps. these will cause the whole machine to run poorly..

You guys have no idea what your talking about...

If I were you i would go with this

If your money is a bit low go with this

It has less cache than the Core 2 Duo which would = slower response time but both would run CF 60+ FPS combined with your 9400 GT. Both will work with your LGA775 socket.
