ill really like intel cause i really want to change from platform. as i said i just wanna try it out for a change... if i sell my athlon IIx3 plus the money for the 2500k i can get a 2600k.. just saying...

i do alot of games internet browsing watch movie. can i see a difference between phenom x4 to a 2500k? in games..

so what should i get a 2500k?

i cant get another phenom x4 because i think it is not future proof i need a proci that can last almost 2 years. yes fx is a good idea for future proofing but i cant afford to buy a bulldozer it is expensive rather than sb 2500k so what do you think should i do?

sorry for the wrong info.. what board is good enough for sli/xfire and has very stylish look but not too expensive

thanks but want board should i get? should i forget about ssd for a high end board? or a cheap board with an extre ssd?

you mention 2011 do you know when will it be released? i dont need new ram. i have a gskill ripjaw 2gb*2 1.5v it is.

2011 is too expensive even if i start right now saving money.. ivy bridge is one of my reasons thanks for helping me choose the right board.. i need a board with crossfire and sli. i found one that is not expensive but has the features that i wanted. the asrock z68 extreme 3 gen3.. is that a good board? or it has many problems.. or the gigabyte board with an ssd on it.. when i was thinking of an asrock extreme3. i remembered that i can boost startup and loading in games. with a ssd.. so if i buy a asrock extreme 3 i can save almost 90$.. is their ssd worth 90$?

for the i5 money isnt an issue. the board is i have 10000php or $230

i have read forum about 2500k vs 955be.. some said 955be save the money some said get 2500k its better in games.. please reply. i need a processor that is a future proof and powerful even after 2 years maybe?

rma? i remembered i lost the receipt of it..

my phenom is broken. i tried lots of troubleshooting nothing happend. but when i tried my athlon IIx3 it worked perfectly. i have lots of reasons why i choose to go with intel. i just wanna try intel ive been using amd for 5years.. i usually base my opinion by reading forums reviews., etc.. ive heard that the 22nm cpu by intel is coming january 2012 its compatible with z68. ...etc.... for the motherboard the budget is tight. for the 2500k its not. i am really not contented with phenom IIx4 or x6.. ive used my friends 2500k and it worked for me. loading in games and windows booting up was faster. bulldozer is not coming here in the philippines this year maybe next year. i need to decide quickly.. so i choose 2500k. and please help me choose a motherboard that can overclock well.

sorry for using way.. overreacting.. here in the philippines rma is so slow process.. and i am not contented with my phenom IIx4.. i am no fanboy of amd or intel but. i really focus on performance..

oh and by the way i need looks and the color scheme is black or red or black red

i am not really contented with my system right now. my phenom 2 x4 died yesterday and i am using a athlon x3. ive read reviews about bulldozer it doesnt catch my attention. no offense to amd fanboys but sb is way better than bd.. read all the reviews 2500k 2600k and fx-8 2500k and 2600k tops the bench. 2011 socket is way out off my budget. so my question is when fx-8 is overclock to its highest can it kick the 2500k oc? if so i will not change anything except for my processor.. but if not... what board should i get? msi asus gigabyte or asrock? in msi no idea? gigabyte no idea? asus maximus genez gen3? matx board? not good.. asrock still no idea. please reply as soon as possible their is a special promo somewhere here in the philippines. budget is tight for the motherboard.. my budget is around 10000php in $ 230.94 here's the site(tipidpc.com) it is in english btw. my girlfriend is giving me the 2500k or the fx. it depends. im very sorry for my english.. thanks for your replies..
