Appreciate opinions (bugs, compatabilities, etc) on the following: ATI Radeon 5450 vs 5670 AMD Phenom 1045 vs 1075 Used in: Desktop, Two 23 in. screens Used for: Real-time trading/charts, no data crunching, standard Internet usage, occasional video games. First time using both of these components. Is it worth the extra $$ for the "better" versions?
Not necessary for trading applications. As for gaming, you'll have to decide how much horsepower you want.
