New Processing CHIP for extreme gaming

[Molly_Millions]

This is where we disagree, as I have preferred AMD for the last couple generations. Intel hardware is overpriced for what you get, even though they often do bring out the bleeding edge CPU first. AMD gives you a lot more for the money most of the time. I would only choose intel if money was no object and I wanted the bleedingest of bleeding edge.

That price difference is what drove my choice initially. But around the same time I built that machine, I got a new i5 at work that hauled ass doing fairly simple things compared to my AMD, I reconsidered and built a new gaming rig using an i5 chip. I'm glad I did.
