P4 is an old CPU. (Good in its time, but not anymore)

Great.
Now you can own me twice as much in TF2

I would expect you to have a Nehalem processor...since your name is Nehalem.

One minor update: this picture, of the Vista performance informatin indow.
I was originally planning to overclock my cpu to about 3 or 3.2GHz, but after playing numerous games and comparing cpu usage, I doubt that I will need to oc for maybe a year or so. The most cpu that I have ever seen any game use is Mass Effect. Taskmanager, slow update speed, Mass effect cpu and ram usage, citadel.
