Hello people,
■ I am gonna build a new desktop and for the start i can't decide on what to base it.
■ My budget will be around 800-850ish pounds. I will build my desktop mainly for productivity software such as Premiere, some Maya (not something very complex), Photoshop, Illustrator.
■ I will run games as well, but casual (mostly trying different games for research - concept art).
I am getting stuck while trying to take the best decision on what platform to start with. I know that money-wise is better to go for the FX8350 but in the same time i'm thinking that i would choose the i5 for the new generation of chips.
Also, i had to consider the i7 3370k which comes with grater price but has similar performances with the FX8350 and beyond, with the help of hyperthreading especially for things as editing or cuda for photoshop.
Please help me take a decision,
Thank you very much!
Alex
