Ok basically I bought a new computer like this
AMD FX-6100 BE
ASUS M5A87
AMD Radeon HD 6790
So yeah, I know i screwd up getting the 6100 (spare me the lecture), I wanted the PC not only to do Gaming but to make videos in sony vegas, but obviously I need to record ingame which consumes cpu / gpu usage a lot.
Now, its bad, my GPU according to GPUZ at max was 30% during SC2 at ultra settings and my CPU only one core reached like 90-100% while the otheres didnt even make it to 15%, and it gives FPS of 55 normally and around 25-35 while a major battle is going on, but when I put 3 of the graphic settings that says that use CPU off or low, bam i get 45-50 fps in major battles. I know SC2 its not a good benchmark but its the only game I have atm.
In HoN, I have decent fps with decent/high settings ( again not a great benchmark, but these are the games i play ) but when I start recording it drops down really low to like 20-25 fps
IF DONT WANNA READ THIS INTRO JUST READ FROM HERE.
So my processor sucks I know that, and that intel i5 could be better, but theres no way I can change my mobo and processor altoguether, so I was looking and found reviews showing the AMD Phenom II X6 1100T being much better for gaming and having also 6 cores (which should be as fast as the fx6100 at rendering, i guess)
So I want to know if its worth it for me to get rid of my 6100 and get a X6 1100T. Is the performance diference going to be that much? since the most ive seen my GPU load go its around 60% Would it make it so that i can FRAPs SC2, HoN and prolly SWTOR (Actually in SWTOR i can record PvE at 40fps no problem, but WZ as same as others it lags even with no recording) at around 40 FPS. Those are the only games im interested in. Maybe WoW.
To note:
An X6 1100T new its around $250 (heavy taxes for pc parts imports in my country so price is inflated)
the FX6100 costed me about $190
And I found a X6 1090T for $140 (that i could oc and get a cooler for it)
