    Hi,

    I want to replace my current cpu with a new one..
    I dont know what is better for me:
    This: Phenom II x4 960t 3.0ghz
    or: APU A8 3850 2.9ghz

    Note that i already have a graphics card: NVIDIA GTX 570

    I think the phenom would be a better choice.. but im unsure.. some help?

    If you have a graphic card already, I don't think you need the APU. Just get a decent CPU and you will be fine. What are the games that you play?
