BluePanda Posted November 5, 2010 Posted November 5, 2010 I can't decide what my next big purchase will be -- not necessarily soon, but eventually I would like to buy either an SSD or a 6+ core CPU... which one shall I spend the money on? I'm letting OCC decide for me... since the internet rules our lives anyway. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
El_Capitan Posted November 5, 2010 Posted November 5, 2010 Why would you need more cores? If you can't think of a reason, SSD! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
potatochobit Posted November 5, 2010 Posted November 5, 2010 and what do you plan to do with this 6 core CPU that your three core cannot do? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

El_Capitan Posted November 5, 2010 Posted November 5, 2010 The 6 core to fold on. I have 22 cores and 38 threads to fold on, and I think my GTS 250 still gives me more PPD. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ccokeman Posted November 6, 2010 Posted November 6, 2010 Let Waco decide! It really depends on what you want out of the upgrade Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deathmineral Posted November 6, 2010 Posted November 6, 2010 Unless there is something you do right now that your current CPU can't handle, I would say go for an SSD. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waco Posted November 6, 2010 Posted November 6, 2010 SSD > 3 extra cores you won't really use. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
