Thread: How to make system faster?

I would like to update my system,

which system would you choose
A- Asus P6TD Deluxe with core i7 920 and mush kin redline 1600 MHz 6-7-6-18
B- Asus p7p55d Deluxe with Core i7 860 and mush kin redline 1600 MHz 6-7-6-18
I want a system for faster movie encoding(DVD to AVI,MPG1),games(I’m not a big gamer)ALL I WANT IS THE BEST PERFORMANCE.
Thanks,

Both Core i7 920 and Core i7 860 shares the same core, with minor differences on the structure. So they both should perform similarly. However, the i7 920 gives you the opportunity to upgrade to multi-CPU configuration, since it’s a much better platform for that (and currently the best platform on the market to do that as well).
