When the Haswell Refresh is released, Intel are apparantly releasing special 20th annerversary unlocked Pentium's which I think is quite cool. If Intel prices then intelligently then they could be a very good value gaming CPU.

 

What are your opinions

How do you know he's young? maybe he's 50 yrs old... jk

 

On topic, I'm curious as to what build would one of these CPU be perfect. At what point could one of them be considered a bottleneck for a GPU if any?

It is literally a wet dream come true for Minecraft servers.

 

And I'm expecting 6Ghz. Anything less I will be disappointed.

In case the moderators do not ban me as requested, this is a notice that I have left and am not coming back.

Care to name some because I can't think of any of the last 5-6 years unless you're talking about the old Netburst and Core 2 Duo based Pentium's.

I totally thought you were going to go dual socket. I would have been like "Your so bad ass man!"
