Ok i know this is probably an overasked question, but what is the better processor for games, I am looking at AMD Phenom ii x6 1090t and i5 760, what is better for games??
760 is the better gaming CPU. It will even perform pretty close to the 1090 in most CPU tasks as well. Unless its way more $$$ where you live you should get the 760 out of those choices.
Here's one for you, did you read the Toms review of the new WoW? Took 5 cores from AMD just to hit what 2 Intel cores could do, and even then they were behind. I don't have time to link the article but you should be able to find it pretty easy. I'll link the pages the next time I have a break.
Deffo get a 2500k, I've got a 1055t @ 4GHZ and it bottlenecks my crossfire 6850s in some games at 1080p. The Phenom II architecture really does suck compared to Intel's, and I'm going to grab a 2500k as soon as I have the money.
OK thanks for the help! But I have a question about the mobo, can someone tell me a recommended one that is reasonably priced? Please use tigerdirect.ca and/or newegg.ca. AS you can see I am from Canada and the pricing is more expensive.
