Like which is more important/vital? Bear in mind - if needed - I'm looking for a good CPU and wanting to know what I should look into more. Here are things which I'm planning to do with my new PC in the future -Gaming (both PC gaming and emulation) -Video Rendering (through Sony Vegas and recording via FRAPs) |
Emulators are usually limited to 2 cores (with some extra tasks on 3rd, if enabled) - this means AMD CPUs, that have a lot worse IPC than Intels, don't perform nearly as good, despite number of cores they usually pack (6-8).
