Can someone please explain to me why I keep seeing posters recommending the i5 over the i7 for gaming system builds?
More specifically the LGA 1156 i5 over the LGA 1366 i7.
The constraint of only 16 PCI express 2.0 lanes for i5 systems would really kill upgradability in the future. I.e. more bandwidth hungry cards in SLI/Xfire.
