Oh, it needs some heavy CPU poke to handle the database involved....not that you guys can appreciate the nuances of "real" football ;-)

Since OP said "maybe be able to run a CPU-intensive game like Football Manager.", I think that the Precision line, if had at a good price, might be a good match. Of course, I don't play games, so don't know if Football Manager really requires all that horsepower... Kurt Sent from my (new!)
