I'm getting a new computer and I'm trying to get it as cheap as possible.
I'm considering getting a used i7 920 or maybe a new i5 4430. If there is a good reason, I'd go as high as i5 4670k. Maybe something in between?
I'm interested how much if any would optimally OCed i7 be slower than i5 4430?
Can I get any ddr3 RAM? Is there anything specific I need to watch out since I plan to OC in case I go with 920/ 4670k.
What is the cheapest motherboard I need to get to optimally OC 4670k? What sort of motherboard do I need to get to optimally oc i7 920?
I'm transiting from c2q 6600 @ 3ghz /w gtx 460, so I'll just be getting CPU/mobo + RAM.
I'm going to use the system for 3d rendering/modeling+ 3d gaming.
Any help greatly appreciated.
