So, I'm actually going to be building a computer very soon...I pretty much know what I want in it...however, I was doing a good job ignoring all the hype of the new processors, until recently. I hear that the new gen. processors (sandy bridge and bulldozer) will boast about 40-60% better performance than current generation processors. I may be a little off with the performance increase, but it's somewhere there...my question is, for an individual that does quite a bit of gaming, light video/picture editing, and multimedia activities...is it worth waiting for the new generation of processors to come out and build around that? or use current technology thats out there to fulfill my needs? I have been visiting these forums for months now, and there is a wealth of knowledge on here and people are very helpful..I would appreciate some of your input ...truth is I dont wanna build something great now, then 1 year from now get angry because I didnt use the new tech.
