Community,
Toms's did Best CPUs for the money not too long ago. It stated that anything past a i5-2500K was Past the Point of Reason. Now looking at Battlefield and especially at Skyrim a CPU bottleneck was noticed. I would like to try and slightly Future proof my future build but want to get a great video card and the $100 bump in CPU cost would require cost cutting on other parts of my build. I was going to get a 1155 CPU, 1155 crossfire/sli Mobo, 4 or 8gb ram-its cheap, and a 750+ crossfire/sli certified power Supply, 1 AMD 6950 2gb (so I can flash to ~6970 performance) and maybe add a second one later.... Also is 750w power supply work for 2 6950 flashed to a 6970 and a i5 or i7 overclocked?
