Generally, you get more mileage out of the latest cards rather than the latest CPUs when it comes to end user apps like games. But those new multicore CPUs will be a boon for research, server usage and content production, whether it be music, CGI, digital imagery, video encoding/editing, etc. Games will probably be the last sector to see big benefits relative to the additional costs. |
Yes. That's why AMD will survive as a company even though their CPU line fails - their GPUs are (provably) the best in the world.
