Topic: cpu question Posted: 06 Jul 2014 at 5:47pm |
In 2009 I had a core i7 930 @2.8 GHz (socket LGA1366). I wonder if the core i5 4670K @3.4 GHz in the Virtue is better than this? I'm guessing that it is.
If a gaming pc already costs $1400, is it really worth the money (or a point) to get an i7 instead of an i5? From the reviews I've seen, with an i5 and a GTX 760, the fps is 80 at high settings in most games. |

Get whatever you feel good about, as you are the one who will be using it.

The newer 4670k , by a few generations, is faster across the board. For gaming, the i5 is all you need at this time.

In every aspect the 4670k is faster. Comes with a 4+ year old cpu architecture vs current. |
