    Hello. I am custom-building myself a gaming PC on cyberpowerpc.com and I am curious if I should get a quad-core processor with dual 8500GTs or a dual-core processor with dual 8800GTSs? I am not sure which is more important. Could I get some help? Thank you very much in advance.

    go with the dual core and twin 8800GTS. you're not going to see a difference between the dual core and quad core with gaming, unless the game is designed for quad cores.

    Dual 8500GT's would have sucked too, no matter what processor was with them.
