They are talking about chips under 200$.
And they completely skip the 140-150-160 (150$) section.
they go from 120$ to 190$.
I specifically have 140 to 160 to spend on a chip. I would never bother buying a CPU for 100$. thats such a big waste, you are getting the lowest end of the old and crusty, and it will hardly be any better than what you have now.
And I dont have 200$ to blow.
So not only did they completely look over the 150$ market area (Which is arguably the most interesting section of CPUS atm.
On top of that, how can they justify putting Dual core chips in all but one of the winners positions.
They are talking about Gamer rigs. Try playing a single rockstar game on a dual core. They know dual core is not the way to go atm.
Am I wrong?
I just cant see how advising to stick with dual core chips is anything other than bad advice.
its 2012. Multimedia, multitasking.
the dual core chips here will barely hold on, dont expect to alt tab out.
Ive been watching youtube videos of fraps and all the chips on this list.
Anything under quad core is just bad advice.
Am I incorrect?
Im picking up the 140$ Fx 6100 for 64 player battlefield maps even.
Ive personally reviewed dozens of youtube videos on all the chips listed to see which one handled
heavy multiplayer maps AND fraps.
anything below the 6100 started to show its struggle. with slight stutter while recording full HD.
the 6100 took it without stutters.
If it can run the game AND fraps.
