I have posted a quad core build on here, and i keep seeing people telling me to go to i7.
This is what i have so far
Power Supply: 750 watt corsair
Motherboard: EVGA 132-BL-E758-A1 LGA 1366 Intel X58
Processor: Intel Core i7 920 Nehalem 2.66GHz
Memory: G.SKILL 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1333
Video card: SAPPHIRE 100259-1GL Radeon HD 4870 1GB 256-bit GDDR5
This all comes out to 1,086 US dollars.
My quad core build was 900 US dollars.
Is it worth the extra 200$?
Think if i went with i7, i would have a better computer, that would last longer in terms of gaming.
I would like to at least to christmas of 2010 without buying anything new for it.
All opinions and suggestions are welcome. =D
