Hello,
Im building a PC for gaming and some video editing. Was curious what people thought about these two chips. Many say the HEX Core is more future proof. I don't plan on doing a lot of 3D rendering, but definitely encoding and editing. I also love gaming. But i know each chip requires a separate motherboard. Thoughts?
JUST FYI, the configuration I have now is the following:
- Antec Nine Hundred Black Steel ATX Mid Tower Computer Case
- Intel Core i7-3930K
- 16 GB DDR3 RAM
- GTX 560 Ti w/ 2GB VRAM (mainly for the Adobe's Mercury Engine, but I hear this is a good video card for games too)
- 750 W Power Supply
- ASUS P9X79 PRO LGA Motherboard
- Crucial M4 128 GB SSD for main apps
- HGST Deskstar 7K1000.C 0F10383 1TB HDD for video and such @ 7200 RPM
