lol @ the three people who picked Core i7

lol at people that don't understand the unmatched performance you get quite cheaply from overclocked i7.

For the past two decades or more, computer hardware has had huge diminishing returns at the extreme high and low ends, with the best price:performance values somewhere in the middle. At the moment, the extreme high end is the Core-i7 line and the extreme low end consists mostly of low-power netbook/nettop CPUs like the Intel Atom. Both extremes have their uses, but to say that either are the best price:performance value for your money would be ludicrous.

It seems that some people just saw the word "performance" and went, "hurr Core i7 has bigger numbers so it must be the best!"



"'Casual games' are something the 'Game Industry' invented to explain away the Wii success instead of actually listening or looking at what Nintendo did. There is no 'casual strategy' from Nintendo. 'Accessible strategy', yes, but ‘casual gamers’ is just the 'Game Industry''s polite way of saying what they feel: 'retarded gamers'."
