I have had this question rolling around in my head for several months now. I attended a presentation by a police officer who specialized in computer security. One of his main jobs is to scan computers for child pornography. He said he did this by inserting a flash drive given to the police...
yeah the 770 looks perfect :)
And monstercameron,
I will be using it for some fairly intensive multitasking and the i5 series does not support hyperthreading which would greatly lessen the performance of the CPU
Thanks RaistlinZ :)
I'm gonna get the 4770k. Any suggestions on 660 TI vs 760 TI vs 770? I don't need to play in super HD nor do i need 500 FPS. I still want seamless gaming though and wouldn't mind ultra HD settings :)
Well i was also thinking about a 760 TI or even a 770 once they come out. Im not worried about bottlenecks while gaming (medium details are fine for me) but I will be needing to run some intensive security programs (I am working towards my CISSP).
And Enigmoid, its about $100-$150 price...
well, i guess my question is really this: How much does the extra cores help with multitasking over the power of the i7? The i7 is certainly more powerful but does it multitask as well as the AMD?
I am building a multipurpose PC. It needs to be able to play modern games like Starcraft 2 and Skyrim as well as compile code quickly and run virtual machines (sometimes more than one at a time).
Case: Fractal Design R4
HDD: 1TB Seagate Barracuda 7200RPM
SDD: Samsung 840 Pro
GPU: GTX 660 TI...
