Hello,
This is my first post on this particular forum so forgive me if I break any of your rules,
I haven't built a gaming computer in some time and I'm struggling with one big decision, my wife is letting me spend approx 1,000 dollars on a new gaming desktop. With that being said I have made a couple potetenial shopping carts that both add up to about 1,000 dollars.
Amd 1090t and slied 560s
or I7 + one 560
My biggest question is what does the future of gaming really hold when it comes to hyper threading vs singe and dual core gaming , from my basic understanding most games still only utilize 1 or 2 cores which to me hyper threading for just gaming honestly holds no value at this point? Will slied 560s hold better value then having hyper threading in for gaming?
I only get to build a new gaming rig about every 2 or 3 years , so I don't want to build something and the non hyper threaded x6 not be able to keep up the current games next year. Obviously no one can tell the future how ever some individuals do have some insight about what could happen to gaming in the next couple years.
Thanks,
Adam
