I am going to be mainly playing multi-player games while streaming with xsplit software.
I am going to be purchasing the CPU from microcenter, the 3820 retails there for 229.99.
Currently i own a 2500k and i feel the lack of hyperthreading is holding me back while streaming+gaming. I originally just wanted to step up to the 2600k but microcenter seems to have discontinued it and the 2700k retails for 279.99, making the 3820 a much better purchase in my eyes. I do realize i will have to upgrade motherboard as well.
I posted a thread on the xsplit forums but figured id post here too asking if anyone thinks a hyperthreaded 4 core will be a noticeable improvement over my 2500k.
