Hello everybody)
I though of asking the community, other's opinions are important for me.
Now I'm having laptop with i7-720QM, still don't know if I need Core i7 for my tasks....
I'm not a professional and not hardcore gamer. Sometimes encoding video in Handbrake, sometimes work in Vegas Pro. BF3 and BF4 multiplayer time to time. And other all-famous games like GTA, CoD (only sp), CoH, Civ and TW.
I've tried to load this one CPU as much as I can - so the heaviest scenery for me is: Torrent (DHT: over 2K), Steam\Origin\Uplay working together, Google Chrome (I think I need more RAM here
), Guitar Pro 6, Handbrake, Vegas Pro <- encoding at the same time. And other programs like Afterburner etc. (At least 5)
As for my 720QM - its feeling fine, at least its comfortable for me to work. But its loaded at 100%, sometimes drops, dunno why.. All 8 threads active.
So, I didn't worked with modern CPUs like Sandy or Ivy, Haswell. Don't know, how they coupe with all tasks.
How do _You_ think - is there enough i5(K)? Or even now, meaning the modern powerfull chips architecture, I won't be satisfied with i5 and should go for i7?
P.S. I don't know if modern i5 enough powerfull for all this :\
