also awesome: it's 2013 and we're still using crysis for benchmarking, and every time i see it, I remember it more fondly

also awesome: Black Mesa!

i was planning to get this amd+mobo, but the top of the line mobo is like 120bucks + 120 for the cpu....is just out of my price range what its build for...

then i looked at the a10-5800k...better gpu then the hd4000 intel offers, but the wattage suckage isnt favorable if u compared building a intel system same price bracket..i3

When I built my system back in August I got the i5 I could OC. Yeah, haven't even bothered. I probably would have been better off just getting a regular CPU that I couldn't OC because nothing I use it for would seem to demand the extra CPU power. Oh well.

Its going to take more than speed for me to try an AMD CPU. I hope they are able to do well but its an uphill battle to get back credibility.
