Which cpu?

[evilmeister13]

Intel celeron d 365 or amd dual core @2.66GHz?

[Guest Gazzer96]

My knowledge is pretty weak with old CPUs, but I have heard that AMD's Athlon is quite good.

Which AMD CPU are you talking about? Is this for a new build or something?

[evilmeister13]

Just wondering so i can hand my brothers a computer to play new-ish games on low resolution and at decent speeds.

[Guest GRRigger]

What amd dual core cpu?

 

You buy old rigs? For how much? Where?

Why not buy new?

If the AMD is an Athlon it will beat the Celeron. Celerons are cheap and perform poorly, even the dual core ones, whereas even the older Athlons tend to be quite good.

Cant remember which cpu it is, and its currently installing windows 7 so i cant check. I get old computers all the time from my uncles friends so thats what im using. Free stuff is free stuff.

Does it have a video card in it? Or is it just integrated graphics right now?

Geforce 7300 gt 512mb with 3.5 gb ram

I believe this would run custom zombies and assassins creed on low res.

I really doubt it but give it a try for lols.

GeForce 7300 doesn't stand a chance, I guess you could pop a 750ti in there (inb4 someone tells me it bottlenecks). But at least if he acquires something better later he isn't using a garbage GPU.

[evilmeister13]

Yep. Gonna go for it. I wanna do some custom zombies over lan with my cousin. Might as well try
