hello everyone,can someone help and guide me,im building a new rig and currently in dilemma to choose the right cpu,ive read certain review between this two cpu and the different is not so big but the i74770 bit price cost about rm950 on market. so is there any big different in terms of performance in photo and video editing and alson gaming. tq in advance.
from what i learned in here, if you did photo and video editing an i7 will help alot. or maybe a xeon.
with enough ram, you will reduce rendering time. see it myself from the the tech community.
gaming in the other hand, isnt much CPU intensive. it will become for the next year tho as much games now do take advantage of extra core like BF4 and Watch dog.
but in the meantime an i5 already good.
so if you do works and gaming on the same pc, go for both.
choose better CPU and a good GPU.
a combination of i7/xeon with GTX770 or R9 280x is good enough imo.
lets wait for more experience masterpc race to comment
