im looking to get a gaming pc but im having trouble picking one i need one that can handle ventrilo and wow at the same time and maybe itunes. but i dont know how mean programs a daul core can handle at once with out lagging the system.
Do you have a budget? What country do you live in?
Try one of the following (alphabetical order):
- AMD FX-6300
- AMD FX-8350
- Intel Core i5-3350P (no OC)
- Intel Core i5-3470 (no OC)
- Intel Core i5-3570K
im trying to get something around 500 im not playing demanding games just wow and daiblo 3 and a few other low end games like rift and starcraft 2 i live in the u.s
500 us and thats 500 for the hole system not just for the processor im looking at the amd a 6-5400k which is a daul core or the a10-5800k i need to know how much stuff can a daul core handle at one time. i cant get a build for 500 with the 6300
A dual core can handle most tasks although it can struggle if doing heavy multitasking, video/audio editing/encoding, software compiling or heavy gaming.
