This is gonna be a pretty expensive computer .... idk if i will even find 1 part in stores :S but i would like a good opinion on it , if anyone has anything else in mind that could be a bit better please let me know , if my selection is not comapatible i would also love to know.. thx .. uPB..... I keep telling people to just hold on on the Bulldozers until a price drop is announced if they want to build a gaming computer, because its architecture isn't optimized for single-threaded applications... furthermore modern games are more dependent on the GPU than the CPU... http://www.anandtech.com/show/4955/the-bulldozer-review-amd-fx8150-tested/8 http://www.techspot.com/review/452-amd-bulldozer-fx-cpus/page10.html The i5-2500K and i7-2600K are basically the juggernauts here. They have been since they were released, in fact. No actually the Nehalem processors still outrun the 2600K (i7 980X, 990X, 995X), but their power efficiency is just... bad, and LGA 1366 is a dead end in terms of upgrading.
