[LucasTheGuy]

Hey im just wondering if i shoud get a i7 3820 (can you oc it?) and upgrade to a 3930k

OR

Get a Amd 8350 i know it's a whole other CPU

Andis the i7 3820 good?

 

Thanks for reading

[nishank93]

What do you need it for?

[LucasTheGuy]

Mainly Gaming but i May do video editing later

i7 has no advantage in gaming over i5. So buy a 3570k or 8350. Both are great, but amd is alot cheaper.

[LucasTheGuy]

does amd Put out alot more heat?

 

and i know but i dont like i5's :P

[denestmor3]

i7 has multitreading and when you are doing a lot of multitasking you could get one, only gaming get an i5

[LucasTheGuy]

and is the 3820 better then the 3770k?

cause i can get the 3820 100$ cheaper then the 3770k

[LucasTheGuy]

and wow i get fast answers here......Linus wasn't kidding :P

[denestmor3]

If you don't like the i5, then if you want to do more gaming I sould get an AMD chip otherwise for editing and multitasking I sould get an i7

[LucasTheGuy]

yeah but shoud i get the 3820 and later upgrade to the 3930k or get the 3770k?

He said he may edit videos, i7 will help and with games like battlefield, i7 did have a edge on i5s

 

does amd Put out alot more heat?

 

and i know but i dont like i5's :P

Yes and they draw more power but they are good cpus

Why dont you like i5s? they are great

Mainly Gaming but i May do video editing later

You will have no need for socket 2011 unless you are really editing some major stuff. and you can only overclock k series processors Get a 3770k or 4770k,

[joelthezombie15]

yeah but shoud i get the 3820 and later upgrade to the 3930k or get the 3770k?

Get one chip and be over with it for a while. 

[denestmor3]

There is no big differance between the 2, you will not notice except you have a beast video card.

[LucasTheGuy]

i may get the 7950 in crossfire

[LucasTheGuy]

i think i'll get the 8350 and a h100i or something

 

cause it's warm in my room..........

Either go for 8350 or go full balls to the walls and get the 3930k and never get a cpu bottleneck again. ( tho expensive )

lol : full balls to the walls :P

 

and what do you mean , dont see a bottleneck there?

[JAKEBAB]

U must be new here lol just for next time or even u can now but u should post this in build logs or build planning u will probably get a better expierience with your overall responses as more people will help and it's made for questions like this. IMO u should get a 4770k as 3930k would most Likley be overkill for anything u are editing and it's better for gaming than 3820 plus u get lower power consumption and get all the latest features like 6 native sata 3 ports.

This shouldn't be in the Tech News & Reviews section, would be great if a mod could move this!

[Nicktrance]

Yeah, wrong section, should be in CPU, Motherboard and memory section.

Also, just like they said, since you're going with dual 7950s FX 8350 or i5-4670K (i5-3570K is about as good if you can get a really good deal on it) are the best choices. 8320 is kind of a waste if going for a 2011 build anyway.

Thread moved to CPUs, Motherboards & Memory

I mean that the 3930k is just too much CPU that will ever be used for just gaming.
