Well, I said, Bah, my PC is to slow, so now I getting a New PC upgrade.

New Processor,
New Mother Board,
New Screen (technically not a upgrade)

AMD Duron 1.8 GHZ Processor, not the best, but better then my 600 MHZ, a ASUS Mother Board, and a 19 Inch Flat Screen, not a Flat Monitor, just a flat Screen. And something else, mind went blank on what it was... As I said before, I am a gamer, not a Computer Techy. I should be, but I more into Video Editing and movie making them PC's.

I am so Confused then, or lied to, or not told all the facts, maybe all 3 at the same time or maybe none of them at all. I don't know hardware, I know software, how to use it and such. Like a fighter pilot, he can't build a jet, but he sure can fly.

The Guy told me its a 1.8 GHZ Processor which runs with super high compatiblity with an ASUS motherboard and a Maxtor Harddrive, thats it, I was going to buy a 1.3 GHZ Duron, but he told me those are old and I sould get something new.

Download WCPUID 3.0g+ (Test Version) from there, unzip the downloaded file, run wcpuid.exe, hold down CTRL and push S, convert the captured bitmap to a GIF in photoshop, and post the screen here, like mine.
