Answer» I am confused between the following PROCESSORS. Intel i5 2320 (3 GHz, 4 core) Intel i5 2400 (3.10 GHz, 4 core) AMD phenom II X4 965 (3.4 GHz, 4 core) AMD Phenom II X6 1055T (2.8 GHz, 6 core)
I know that i5 2400 is better then i5 2320 and X6 is better then x6 but what I want to know is that :- 1) Which one gives best VALUE FOR MONEY
2) Which is best processor of the 4 without considering the cost FACTOR
3) If possible please let me know about a decent motherboard for your picks.
Thanksthe phenom II X4. it's what i have.
there is a better one though: www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819103934
don't get the bulldozer. look in the computer news FORUM for info on it.http://www.anandtech.com/show/4310/amd-phenom-ii-x4-980-black-edition-review The Phenom II X6 1055T will definitely be the fastest processor in most cases. As for "bang for buck," the i5-2400 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819115074 is $189, only $20 more than the Phenom II X4 980 BE. However, the Phenom II X6 1055T http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819103851 is a mere $149.
You can get the Phenom II X6 1100T http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819103913 for $189, which will beat all of these processors.
So I would suggest getting a Phenom II X6-more bang for the buck. A 1100T is the same price as the i5-2400, and outperforms it by a large margin.
If you want a best bang for buck motherboard for the processor I recommended, http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813157208 $124. Be aware that it doesn't have integrated graphics.
