        Where are you buying it from? It could be pre-overclocked, because I know for certain that the stock speed of an e6300 is 1.86ghz. The e6400 is 2.1ghz, so that mihgt be it...

        Yes, DX10 cards are coming out soon, but I think if really just want to buy right now, then go ahead and just get it. Nvidia's G80 is most likely going to get sold out and backordered very quick, so I wouldn't expect to get one so soon. Plus, Nvidia's GTS has an MSRP of USD$400, which without a doubt will be price gouged, so I think it would be out of his budget anyway.

              They are, seen it in internet, with some test-results.

              Yeah, I'll buy the nVidia 7600GT now, and when DX10 comes out gonna buy one later.

              And, how can I have two processors? Anybody want to explain me?

                  you mean duo core?
                  (it is really 2 processors in one)

                    Not exactly, but it is like having 2 CPUs but with only have 1.

                      A dual-core CPU has two cores in one package, so it can process multiple threads of code simultaneously better than a single-core CPU.

                        So there's no way I can have two processors?

                          Read this slowly.

                          The cpu that you said you will be getting,

                          Intel Core 2 E6300

                          is a dual core cpu. That means that it has two physical cores on/in it.
