I'm going to be building a PC soon, and this time I plan to go intel. The i3-2100 does fantastic in games for the price (beats out the $120 AMD equivalent), but what I'm worried about is if the 2 cores (even though it has L3 cache) will bottleneck 2 6850's. I plan to start off with one, and when I get a 1080p monitor get another one with it.
I'd rather not go the whole nine yard with the 2500k, even though OCing that would be amazing. I'm planning to spend around $450-500 on the CPU+MB+GPU. So if you have any good combinations other than the one's I've thought of, do tell.
