I'm starting to build a computer again and I have the following components:
WD 640GB HD
Antec 380W Earthwatts PSU
ASUS 9600 GT
I was wondering if anyone has a good recommendation of a good CPU to get?
I plan on using my rig primarily with my 42" LCD HDTV to watch DVD's/.avi movies and also playing the occasional game around 1920x1200 resolution if possible.
I don't need anything too expensive, I was thinking maybe around $100 or something. I don't want to OC too much either, maybe +0.2 or something. (i.e. 1.8 to 2.0 or whatever clock speed I'm going at).
Also, whatever CPU I get, does it have a good stock cooler or would it be to my benefit to get a good Zalman or something?
