Okay so I'm a little worried about my FX-6100 and its new architecture that isn't supported by most everything I use my computer for. The synthetic cores bother me. So I bought it less than a month ago (so I can still send it back) and I'm toying with the idea of getting a Phenom II X4 980T BE while they are still available. According to benchmarks the 980T BE will perform better for gaming. From what I have read the FX-6100 and other Bulldozer/Zambrezi chips will be fixed with Windows 8, I just got Windows 7 though (not ready to splash the cash for more microsoft products) and who knows exactly when Win8 will be released or if my FX-6100 will even perform better. Am I just paranoid or is this a good idea? They are the same price on newegg so I'm getting a straight-up trade and newegg has already accepted my RMA. Should I stick with my FX-6100 and hope for the best or use a 980T for a year or two until I can afford either a Piledriver or switch to Intel? I primarily use my computer for playing FPS games and surfing the internet so I don't think I was gonna use the 6 cores anyway. Let me know what you think.
