PC - Need a bit of PC Help - View Post

Hi guys.

I'm pretty clueless when it comes to PC components. I was wondering if there is anyway I can check what processor a PC has without turning it on?

I was given two PC's and I need to choose the better one, all I know so far is they both have an Asus motherboard with 2GB DDR-3 ram and both have a 500GB hardrive.

The first one has a P5G41T-M LX Asus motherboard and the second one has a P5G41T-M LX2/GB motherboard.  Is that even significant?

Any other adivce you guys can give me? Or will I have to turn them both on to check?

Cheers.
