Awwwwwwh, the i7 would def increase performance.. i5's are great, but i7's are super nice

lol
RE: SETHD13'S NEW COMPUTER COMMISION - sethd13 - 06-13-2013
Why did everyone say that the i5 makes no real difference?
RE: SETHD13'S NEW COMPUTER COMMISION - yottabyte - 06-13-2013
Because it doesn't. Asdf looks at the number and thinks, "oh damn, 7 is like 40% more than 5, that means the i7 must be 40% better!!"
Look up some game performance tests. At most you'll get like 2 more fps with the i7.
RE: SETHD13'S NEW COMPUTER COMMISION - bvcxzmn - 06-13-2013
Exactly what yotta said. The only thing you would want an i7 for is video rendering and other very CPU intensive tasks that hyper threading will make a big difference. You'll barely see any difference, if any, in gaming.

The 3820 is a good CPU. It's cheaper and more powerful than a lga 1155 i7, but it uses LGA 2011 so you'd need a different motherboard for it. It's basically a xeon with 4 out of the 8 cores disabled because they are malfunctioning or something.
