First hi, nice to meet you all !!!
Ok i have 2 upgrade plans, one with AMD and the other one with Intel....
1° Get a Phenom II x4 955, with a AM3+ MoBo and 8gb DDR3
2° i5 2500k with P67 1155 socket MoBo, 8gb RAM (Wich is almost 150-200 more than the Phenom)
is there a lot of difference between the i5 and the PIIx4 at 1280x720 resolution ?
the problem is this... i know that the i5 2500k destroys the x4 in gaming and ill be fine for a few years (3 at least), thats a fact... my problem is that, with Ivy Bridge and Bulldozers soon to come (BD in 2 months and IB mid2012), i may just get the Phenom, save me those 150, start saving again and see what BD and IB have to offer on late 2012
so now comes to mind 2 things, will we see too much difference between SB and IB/BD ? how much difference in perfomance will i see between the PII x4 and the SB i5 2500k in 1280x720 resolution ?
And for a fact, im on a hurry to upgrade and i wont buy first gen BD, because most of the times, first gen stff comes with problem or get replaced with a way better second gen.
MY Specs are
Atlhon x2 5600+
4gb DDR2
HD5770
19' (Max Resolution: 1280x720)
so after all, should i just fo got the i5 eyes closed ? or its better to just get the Phenom save some money and see what BD/IB has to offer in late 2012 ?
PD: i do have the money for the i5/P67/8gb DDR3
