Hi there,
I'm going to order some upgrades this weekend and thought I'd try get some last minute input on it. I mostly play games, a little video editing but that's it. The key thing about the games part though is that I am a WoW'er and I use fraps. Just because fraps loves eating up cpu resources I am planning to go for a 1090T, and maybe overclock it to about 3.8ghz, from what I see that should be easily doable.
The question is, because I want to use fraps while running games does this seem like the best solution? I know i7's have better performance in general and I could get the 950, but if fraps is using a lot of a core or 2 would i better having the six core amd jobbie, and reserving the last 2 cores for fraps? And no, the 980x is a no go.
