Two xeon or one i7 processor in my gaming rig ???

Deveki Nandan Shukla · Jul 20, 2016

i was preparing to build a gaming rig (Insane one).
but watching some reviews and youtube videos i am confused now.

i will use
2 Nvidia 1080 in SLI
and 2400 Mhz to 3200 Mhz Ram 32 GB.

now when it comes to processor what should i go for?
Dual xeon or single i7. ??
Suggest best one.

It is possible but which mobo are you going to use ?

Xecorion :

depends .. wether it will be a Dual Xeon or Single i7

There are literally zero benefits to a dual Xeon gaming setup. There are no games out there that will ever use all the cores/threads it can provide, and heck most games won't even utilize the second processor at all. It may even run slower than below:

An X99 Motherboard with prettymuch any i7 available for it would crush anything you can play today and into the foreseeable future. Thats the route you should go.

If i decide to do some PC game recording as well and rendering them for youtube videos ..
Will i7 work there too ??

Yeah thats what those X99 board based Broadwell-E cpus are best at, they have way more cores than any game needs and so your recording software has room to play and encode while not affecting your framerate.
