Ok thanks gonna see it now

---------- Post added at 06:01 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:13 AM ----------

So ok I saw the series now and my conclusion is that games that can utilize the 8 cores actually prefers the fx 8350 like battlefield 3 and farcry 3 and it's even better on windows 8 because it also utilizes the 8 cores and the games I'm gonna play are going to be better on the fx 8350 especially battlefield 3 so from my perspective the 8350 is still better because future games actually utilizes the 8 cores so I think the fx 8350 is the way to go as for games like skyrim which are better on the 3570k well I don't really play them so I don't care about them and these benchmarks actually confirmed that I made the better decision and also linus discussed something important too which is the total cost of both systems which is important the maximus v formula is much more expensive than the crosshair v formula and the fx is cheaper than the 3570k too so I'd rather save money for future upgrades and thanks for showing me these videos:)
[Off-topic] SteveG12543:

[Off-topic] roofrider:
Dude please, 8350 is comparable to 3570k, 3770k is faster than both and hence the much higher price.

As much as i'd like to justify that AMD isn't as bad as people make them out to be, i hate seeing such comments.

There are only a few games that'll utilise all those cores of an 8350 today, it's one for the future definitely. But gaming is much more dependent on the GPU.

As for the 8350vs3770k discussion I believe that the 3770k is better now because programs and games cant run in 8 cores but in 1-2 years the 8350 will be kicking ass with 16mb cache ! Intel is overpriced .

Intel is a tad easier to cool. They simply don't run as hot. A lot of people are surprised when they switch to amd and go for the same clock speeds. Something to consider.

I would go with gskill ram personally and the fx series is pretty awesome, if your going for motherboards Asus is good or gigabyte boards are good as well for video cards I swear by anything made by his
[Off-topic] gunz.jones:
Yes on both. You'll have the gaming down for now and a ways into the future. You don't need ask that, but it's under your budget and will give you a few years in use without worry of needing to upgrade to keep up
[Off-topic] TheSkinnyDrummer:
That's not entirely true either though. On the surface, if I can get an amd to do the same for less money, sure it's worth considering. But it's going to fall at the expense of cooling. That's my only point. If I can get a high end amd to 4.8ghz stable, like my 2600k, then tits, but I already know my liquid cooling would have to be upgraded..... More money. You're paying either way.

[Off-topic] roofrider:
Also Intel wins the TDP battle hands down.
[Off-topic] bbrad:
A hyper evo is only 30$ and its strong enough to over clock the 8350 to 4.5ghz anyway enough with the back and forth both is plenty for gaming anything more than a 6300 and quad core i5 just for gaming is just crazy.

My friend he's talking about my use cause I'll use the cpu for other things other than gaming like autocad and other stuff sure the 3770k is better in games (by a few unnoticeable fps) and in general single threaded programs but considering the price it's better to buy the 8350 for my use and with future programs utilizing more cores the fx is better for the long run plus in terms of gaming with the money I saved I could get another gpu and thus have more fps:)

Ya sorry for that I have really poor grammatical skills :D

Yup I think that too:D

---------- Post added at 10:26 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:17 PM ----------

Ya but they are very expensive I do have the money for them but I'd rather save money and upgrade later when i need to because technology evolves very quickly so yes the intel extreme edition is much faster but for how long do you think plus I don't really think that I'll use it to it's full potintial so again I'll go with the FX8350:thumbup:

How do you find the c2d performing up against that i5 air?
[Off-topic] runtohell121:
Not too sure actually.. Both were running different version of OS X back then (SL vs Lion) and the MBP had a 320gb HDD compared to a 128gb SSD.. Obviously the Air would be faster due to the SSD. When both of my mac were upgraded to ML, I rarely bother running them to see which was faster. It's hard to tell the difference for regular task due to SSD launching apps, booting up really fast. And one more note, you're planning to get a MBP with Intel C2D or i5, it's different from the Intel i5 the MBA have since MBA uses the ULV version I believe whereas MBP uses regular notebook version. So in other words, MBA i5 runs slower than MBP i5

SSD is one of the best upgrades for your computer :)
[Off-topic] TheMuffStuff:
I dont upgrade computers, I have no idea how and wouldnt know where to start, so when I buy, thats it. :)

Im torn between a 2010 MBA with C2D or a 2012 MBA with an i5. Im saving around 400$
[Off-topic] runtohell121:
If you buy a 2012 MBA, the only thing you will be able to swap is the SSD. Everything else is soldered to the Motherboard, meaning no upgrade in RAM if you need more.

If you by a 2010 MBP C2D, you're able to upgrade the ram from 4gb to 8gb, HDD from 320gb to a SSD of your choice ($80-$200 depending on size, mostly 128gb-256gb).

Let's say, you buy a 2010 MacBook Pro Core 2 Duo 2.4 or 2.66 for ~$800. 2.4GHz comes with 2gb ram (I think) and 250gb HDD. 2.66GHz comes with 4gb ram and 320gb HDD. You go buy upgrade parts such as 8gb ram for $35 and 256gb SSD for $180. Swapping out the components are simple, totaling around $1,015 for a speedy MacBook Pro, just might not be faster than the MBA in terms of processing power in some programs.

If you get a 2012 MacBook Air 13, assuming you get the base model at $1,199, you get an Intel i5 1.8GHz w/ turbo boost 2.8GHz, 4gb ram, and 128gb SSD, you're pretty much all set and running smoothly out of the box. The big plus about 2012 models are USB 3.0 which I would love on my MBP or MBA but sadly I don't have them.

And damn.. I feel like I paid way too much for my MacBook Air 11 2011.. I remember paying nearly $1,300 before tax even with edu discount.. I thought MacBook Air starting price was $1,199, but I guess they dropped the price this year. I always buy the top end models... :laugh: because the base model was 64gb SSD and 2gb ram in 2011.. had to pay extra for 4gb ram and 128gb SSD, nearly $1,499 before edu discount last year I believe.. wtf Apple lol

edit: on a side note... I think I want one.. http://www.pcworld.com/article/262259/intel_preps_tiny_next_unit_of_computing_for_october_ship.html :D but mSATA drives are so damn expensive
[Off-topic] TheMuffStuff:
Lol you juts told me everything to do if you upgrade. But I dont upgrade computers. Never have never will. If I buy a macbook older than 2011 I will upgrade my ram by going to Apple. Im not a computer nerd, I dont mess with it. I stick with what it comes with.
[Off-topic] runtohell121:
Apple don't offer upgrades on ram though.. :laugh: They only offer ram upgrades when you custom build a new machine and have it shipped to your house, other than that, it's all DIY. There's about 10 screws on the bottom of a MacBook Pro, might be philips, might be torx depending on what year you get. If you don't want to upgrade, my suggestion is go with the MacBook Air 13 2012 with i5, 4gb ram, 128gb SSD. You will never want to go back to HDD once you use a SSD just saying. ;)
[Off-topic] TheMuffStuff:
