This option determins what type of computer you will be purchasing. There are four types of systems currently available from Vanco Computing: Pentium 4, Pentium Dual-Core, AMD 64-bit/Dual-Core and AMD FX.

Pentium and AMD have been manufacturing computer processors for years, but AMD started making 64-bit edition processors, which has caused it to at the very least compete more agressively with Intel (Pentium 4). AMD now can offer quite a bit of power for prices that are less than your typical Pentium 4 processor.

Dual core technology essentially allows you to have two processors in the same device. If you are using complicated or power-hungry software, typically two at a time, you will be able to run both at the same time without causing severe system performace problems or software failure. This technology is for high-end multi-task users.

The AMD FX is rated as the best gaming processor. If you are not concerned with price, and you want the fastest possible computer for gaming, then you want the AMD FX processor.
