The Q series CPUs are from around 2008 and the ivy bridge i5s from Q2 2012, lol. The i5s are definitely a hell of a lot faster and are pretty much made for overclocking. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ok, thanks for info abt Ivy bridge. Also, can u guide me on. AMD FX vs i7 ? since AMD FX 8xxx look damm cheap, but has 8cores and 4.4ghz. Is AMD FX good for gaming as an alternative for i7 costly series ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mos1ey 6301 Posted July 22, 2013 i7s and FX-8s are just quad-cores with 2 logical cores per physical. It doesn't really benefit you when it comes to gaming, it's more for heavy multitasking or video rendering. It's not really worth going with an i7 unless you're going for the 3770k or better, the others are just i5s with hyperthreading and a hefty price tag. The FX-8 CPUs do actually outperform the FX-6 and FX-4s though, so if you're going AMD it would probably be wise to go with a decent FX-8 series. I'd recommend going with either a decent i5 like the 3570k or 2500k or if you want to save some cash then the best FX-8xxx that you can afford. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mos1ey 6301 Posted July 22, 2013 I have Gygabyte G41 board. Can it fit AMD FX-8 CPU ? Nah, AMD use completely different sockets. I think you'd need a mobo with an AM3 socket for the FX-8s 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Please correct me if im wrong. ! sorry chap the Q9550 may have been good about 5 years ago but both the FX, and i5 are a hell of a lot better.

Mos1ey 6301 Posted July 22, 2013 Indeed, I'm running a 3570k and love it! Would recommend it if you've got the cash. If not - an FX-8350 would still serve you well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cap'n (DayZ) 1827 Posted July 22, 2013 Well, I thought about making a living room visitor PC so my friends from the...ugh...console crew can play with me. Its a pretty simple $500 dollar rig I created just messin' around on Newegg. What kind of FPS am I expecting on what settings?(40 FPS is fine, 30 FPS minimum. I don't need 60.) Here are the specs; Mini ITX case - $45 MSI FM2 A75 Mini ITX board - $85 AMD A10 6700 w/ Radeon HD 8670D(between 6670 and 7750) - $150 Radeon HD 7750 Crossfired with 8670D(some videos on youtube of people playing BF3, FC3, and Bioshock Inf on Ultra settings with 50-60 fps) - $90 300 Watt SFX power supply for mini itx case - $20 320GB Seagate OEM Hard drive - $30 4gb DDR3 2133mhz RAM(best for the IGPU on the A10)- $45 What kind of FPS on what settings can I expect?
