x2 only has 2 cores, i wouldn't recommend a x2 processor, some games are starting to use 4 cores and the tendency is to see alot more games doing the same.
just get a cheap X4 processor or not so cheap (that depends on you)
GTA 4 and Battlefield Bad Company 2, both run alot better on quad cores both from AMD or intel
The setup of an entry level quad core and an ATI 5770 will max out almost all titles out there today and be able to play them smoothly up to 1920x1080. However, there are some titles out there where the cores don't matter at all. The extra cache from the Phenom BE might actually outperform the entry level quad's. The fact that it's a BE may also give it some boost as well, considering there can be more room for high overclocking, which is hard to do with the Athlon series.
will an hd4650 work well with this processor?
