DanTheGamer11 Posted November 15, 2013 Posted November 15, 2013 Bump before I order Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
IVIYTH0S Posted November 15, 2013 Posted November 15, 2013 Whatcha gonna get? I still have always wanted to run an X6, they seemed like awesome chips. My dad's board probably couldn't handle one, but he has the tried and true X4 940 in there now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanTheGamer11 Posted November 15, 2013 Posted November 15, 2013 Not sure, Could get the 720 and hope for an unlock to 4 cores or get an Atlon II X4, or get a 1035T for double the price. I don't want to spend too much since this is temporary, at least till AMD says all it has to say about the FX line and motherboards. Just want the best CPU for Crysis 3 since it's quite intensive(physics I assume). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
IVIYTH0S Posted November 15, 2013 Posted November 15, 2013 Those Athlon X4's really are great chips that a lot of people over looked. I used to look at the benchmarks and they looked terrible but it was the best quad I could get my cousin when I built her a system and after I overclocked it, even at 3.4ghz...it gamed as good as my Q9450 did at 4.0ghz, I saw NO difference at all. The Athlon seemed zippier in windows too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanTheGamer11 Posted November 15, 2013 Posted November 15, 2013 Yeah I was looking at a X4 or a Phenom X3... just wish people here still had one they could try Crysis 3 with :/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
