If you only do CPU workload that gpu will be fine.

I'd expect nothing less from someone with an FX avatar. :P I was being facetious... get a sense of humor.

Runs bf3 fine at 720p medium. Pretty surprising for what the GTS 250 has in it honestly. I dont have my old 550ti to compare anymore, but it feels like this gts 250 might have a bit more to it. Aside from running DDR3 VRAM, which is just "what"

To bad it can, and no amount of intel fan boying can change that. go back to paying twice the price for the same performance why dont ya.

An i3 will bottleneck a sli configuration LESS than a 8350.

Sounds like a per core power problem not an overall power problem. either that or BF4 just doesnt like SLI that much. If you honestly think an i3 will beat an 8350 at ANYTHING you need to sell your PC and just go play on a console.

No.

 

Here's a challenge for you.

 

Tell me exactly what the benchmark you posted represents, what is means and its bearing on real life performance, otherwise I might as well make a graph and label the axis "clock speed" and "cores".

Equally meaningless.
