| LuckyTrouble said: IIRC, emulation is one of few things that can actually benefit some from an i7. At the same time, you can usually achieve the same, if not superior performance just overclocking a less expensive i5. Not to mention a good value i5 is best for general gaming purposes anyways. Realistically, I suppose an i7 is fairly unnecessary. I wouldn't dip as low as an i3 though if an i5 isn't out of a person's price range. |
An i7 is virtually worthless from a gamer's perspective....... I have a quad i7 and no game ever uses more than 10% of its power. For a gaming PC always go with the i5 or AMD
