Intel Core i7-3770K Ivy Bridge 3.5GHz (3.9GHz Turbo) LGA 1155 77W Quad-Core Desktop Processor Intel HD Graphics 4000 I'm going to clear up the specifications a bit.
1. i7 3820 4.2 GHz 2 X Radeon 7870 16GB DDR3 Two hard drives (total of 1.5 TB)
2. i7 3770k 3.5GHz Radeon 7950 16GB DDR3 120GB SSD
This is a difficult choice.
The 3770k CPU is newer, but the two are similar in performance. http://www.cpubenchmark.net/high_end_cpus.html The benchmarks are about 600 points off (not counting the overclocked 3820) I'd say they offer the same amount of performance.
Both computers have the same amount of RAM.
Computer 1 has significantly more storage space than computer 2 (1500GB as opposed to 120GB). For this, I would LEAN toward computer 1. However, an ADDITIONAL hard drive is not that expensive.
The graphics on the first computer is definitely better than the second one. The Radeon 7870 clocks in at 4202 and the Radeon 7950 clocks in at 4540. http://www.videocardbenchmark.net/high_end_gpus.html However, keep in mind that computer 1 has TWO of these graphics cards. That would definitely be the better choice.
Just looking at these specifications, I would go for the first computer.
However, we should know more information.
What are the prices of these computers? How far apart are they? What do you plan to do with these computers?please any advice is extremely neededthe first computer is $1900 and the second is $1450 mind you this is before taxI plan on using them completely for gamingBoth computers will offer extremely well gameplay. They will knock out any video game on maximum graphic settings.
In my opinion, both computers are equally as powerful.
Personally, I would go for the first computer. The dual graphics card and extra storage space is very useful.
If you don't want to spend all of $2000, the second computer is just as good. The only noticeable difference would be storage space.thank you very muchGood luck!
