• Intel Core I5 or I7?
    4 replies, posted
Simple question, hard decision: I can't make up my mind, should I go for the I5 2500k, or spend the extra bucks to get the I7 2600k? Will i notice the difference when I'm gaming normally? Maybe it's a better idea to save my money buying the I5, and then maybe buy a better/cheaper I7 in the future, since the 2600k isn't THAT much better than the 2500k please help me decide
for gaming, go for the i5 and spend the $100 you saved toward a better GPU
unless you'll make use of hyperthreading (games don't), 2500k
cool, thanks for the answers guys
2600K is more for heavy video editing and other intense multitasking programs.
