[cite] azazthot:[/cite]I need an advise: which sse3 proc to buy?
Motherboard: K8NF-9 (gigabyte) - 939 socket
(Ppl from NL - welke winkel ook?)
You've got the same motherboard as me, I also recently upgraded to SSE3 :-D

I bought an 4200 X2 939 off ebay. It works pretty well if you boot with IDLEHALT=0 to avoid the random glitches caused by the dual core. My system xbenches at around 120 with this processor.

Mac OS X 10.6.4 Retail || Intel Core2 Duo E8200 2.66GHz || Gigabyte G31M-ES2L || GeForce 6600 GT 128MB || Realtek ALC883 Audio || Realtek RTL8169 LAN || Samsung SpinPoint F1 1TB HD || Sony Dual Layer IDE DVD RW DW-D22A || Apple Aluminium Keyboard || Mighty Mouse

MacBook Pro || 2.4Ghz Core 2 Duo || 200Gb HD || 2Gb Ram || NVIDIA GeForce 8600M GT

iPhone 4 || 16Gb
