That's true. But the 2500K beats the 3570K is every single benchmark when OC'd. I don't know why I said he would not be using the 3570's full power or whatever, my head wasn't screwed on right.
There's literally no difference between them except maybe 5% performance difference, a bit less power draw, better integrated graphics (which hardly matters for anyone with a dedicated card), and low quality thermal paste instead of fluxless solder (but you can still get it to 4 GHz easy)

Neckbeards! Doctor Cichocki does not approve of stupidity and neither do I, stop the spread of damned useless rules!
Here is my speccy file.
Also, here is a screenshot.

Make sure your motherboard supports a high enough wattage also, I found out that my motherboard only supports up to a 65 watt processor, so I have to buy a new motherboard too.(my processor is an Amd Athlon II 235e...lol)
I currently have a AMD Athlon II X2 250 Processor 3.00GHz
IIRC Wouldn't it be a socket AM3?
3570k/770/old

The Athlon 2 fit in AM2+ with DDR2 or AM3 with DDR3
An i3 or even PIIx2 would be more than fine.

A TON off topic. As well, there's practically no chance it would work in AM2+/AM3.
So should I go for this one?
(BTW I don't want to spend more than 150$)

How old is this computer?
