Running my system with a hopefull upgrade to 4gb ram and a Phenom. Not sure which to get. The 9550 or the 9750? Is the .2 GHZ enough to justify the extra 33$ for it? Should i wait for the prices on the phenom 2s? seeing as im on a tight budget. Im 14, and work at Swiss Chalet :P looking to get a WC setup for my Athlon or maybe get a Quad/4gb Ram. let me know what you guys think. Thanks, Cherry.

Well depending on wether or not my M3A32 Deluxe supports a Phenom II that is sufficiently faster (940 @ 3GHz) than my 9850 will be the driving force behind me getting it or not. So if yer willing to wait that long (however long) I may or may not have a 9850 laying around on the cheap.

lol they let you work at 14? umm the 9550 is a better choice. it's 200 mhz slower but that don't make a difference, and aswell the 9550 is 95 watts and not 125watts,

Have you not seen the commercial of the kid who wants to work to afford to buy hockey equipment? Well turn that into computer equipment instead!

lol yes ive seen that, but i thought 15 with parents consent was the limit of places, due to the fact that insurance companies wont cover usually anyone under 16

Rofl i work at swiss chalet as a dish bitch, and im one of the better ones there :P Theres a crazy 52 year old black guy that does crack. Working with him is WONDERFUL!(Note sarcasm?)I dont work to buy computer equipment. i work for something to do with my time. other wise it would be CSS or Runescape instead of getting paid to spray water at dishes. Also Steve-o I heard the release of the Phenom 2s is gonna be like Jan 15-18. How much would you be willing to let that baby go for?
