Hi guys,
I'm about to buy my new computer, and the CPU was choosen to be a 920, since I'm doing some video editing and Photoshop work, etc.
By coincidence I saw some tests and reviews of the 860, and it seem like a far more potent CPU than the 920 - BUT on another socket...
Now I have a few questions regarding just that:
- Are they both OC friendly with the right cooling?
- What consequences will it have, to choose one CPU (and socket) over the other?
- Should I actually just wait and see what Phenom X6 will bring?
Triple CF/SLi and whatnot ain't gonna happen for me. I'm prolly buying a 5770, and when that gets too slow I'll make em CF - thats my plan for now atleast!
