Hi,
I was thinking about buying one of these, in my old computer, to replace the montherboard, so I can have this tripple core processer.
It looks a lot better then Intel's core2duo.
Any thoughs?
My current spec is:
512mb ram
windows vista sp1
2.8ghz amd altherlon 64bit.
Would I need to upgrade the m/b? To support this processer?

i'm not even sure....
it says it on their website.
AMD are planning to release triple core processors. They'll most likely be crap like the rest of their multi-core processors.

Okay.
If you can afford it, get an Intel Q6600 Quad Core or something, and yes you will need a new motherboard.

Well, I can honestly say I would bet money on it that the Core 2 Duo is better than AMD's tri-core. They just have better architecture.

It's better then the core2dual search amd 780G on youtube to find out more
such as this one:

It has built in directx
Dude that's a chipset not a processor. If you plan to game properly then I recommend you buy a proper graphics card not some integrated one, no matter how powerful they claim it to be.
There is a big diffrence between a chipset and a processor.

OK, so the processer is only £50 to buy? And the motherboard is only £60, should I buy?
What processor and what motherboard?

I don't recommend you get an AMD chipset because at the moment Intel has better processors than AMD.

well what intel + mb should I get?
Intel are crushing AMD with their processors at the moment. I'd even go with a Qaud Core Q6600 as recommended above. They're cheap but a good processor.
