As said above? which will be better if both are around the same price? both are 256mb... Does the 2600xt come with the Hdmi cable?

Thanks

AMD 3600+ X2 or E2160?

My current setup is

P4 2.4ghz S478
ECS P4M800-M
512MB patriot ram X2
Galaxy 7600GS 256mb
Creative X-fi Fatal1ty
2X 250gb HDD
Dell 24" LCD monitor
Viewsonic 19" monitor

I recently got my 24" and I couldnt stand not watching HD movies on the 24"(720p). So I wanted to spend like Rm600 for a new rig to play my games(WoW) hopefully at max quality and watch my HD movies without lag cause the current config cant do all those. but too bad someone suggested dual core. So the budget increased by 300

I was looking at getting

AMD 3600+ X2 Brisbane- 2nd hand
AM2 mobo - 2nd hand
2X 1gb OCZ ram
2600pro

and reusing everything that I have. This will cost me about RM 900. Or should I top up a 150 to get

C2D 2160
Foxconn mobo
2X 1gb OCZ ram
2600pro

Estimate cost is around RM 1065.

Well I want to get a cheap comp cause I will only be using it for a few months up to June and negotiate with my dad for a 4-5K desktop(bday present). So is it worth it spending the extra RM600 for something that I will use for a couple of months. After that I will use this comp as the server for the house(just cause its cool) XD. Well I was thinking that if its gonna be a 24/7 comp for the house I should get a lower watt comp(C2D). So I cant decide if the extra 465 is worth it. Since I'm gonna get a new comp in 4 months

and besides can the AMD 3000+ play WoW at max resolution 1900X1200 and Max settings? or watch HD Movies(720-1080p) without lag? considering that I have MSN Messenger, Firefox(10 tabs) and other programs on at the same time?
