The 1100T would be the best performer of those but for the performance/price the 960T is the best.

Hi

I run 1100Ts in all my gaming machines...and I am a Pro..

Hard to find though...

All the best Brett

the 960t is the only sane choice of the lot. The others cost as much as an intel core i5 2xxx series, and the i5's are far superior than anything AMD has for gaming.

Buy the 960T. May be able to unlock a 6X, if not oh well you can still clock past 4Ghz and play any game you want.

you are certifiably insane. show me evidence where a 1100t beats either the i5 or i7

the i5 even wins in rendering.

i3 is a different story.
