This may have been asked but im trying to make sure im reading everything right as iv been really close to building a new machine the last few days before I found out about the sandy bridge cpus coming up.
Iv read the Anandteck article. So what im gathering is that the i7 2600k will be better then a 980x and will be about 1/3 the price? (assuming that price point iv seen mentioned is true.)
Im sorry if some of these are stupid questions my brain is kinda burnt after reading tons of forums and articles the last few days trying to decide what to put into a new machine. If it helps it is a gaming machine and I was ok with the price of the 980x as long as it was the top processor. This is my first attempt at making a monster/top/near top of the line machine.
So I guess the TLDR version is with what we know know will there be a sandy bridge process that closely rivals the 980x at launch (first part of jan?) of the new sandy bridge processors?
Thanks for reading!
