On the fence about a purchase decision. So far here are my thoughts:
i7 2600 pros: 8 threads
i7 2600: cons: No overclocking
i5 3570k pros: overclocking, slightly higher IPC, newer
it 3570k cons: 4 threads/no HT
CPU will be used for general office use/watching videos and light-moderate gaming. I'm leaning towards the 3570k but what are your thoughts?
