so i've been waiting and waiting for a upgrade to my slowing decaying itx e6850 build *Intel DG45FC Board/4 Gb 800mhz/Kingston HyperX 120gig*....its an all purpose machine that plays games *I need to play all of my games on low/medium settings @ 1440x900 , encodes videos, etc etc
looking to play games like mechwarrior online and eve online smoothly with all special effects turned on...for now i gotta leave em all off , as well as any other game like batman arkham city smoothly over at least 50 fps, i'm not even gonna try with my current config as my board only has a pcie x1 slot thats currently occupied with a usb 3 4-port card
something speedy enough for my emulator software would be useful as well
gonna need to install lots of ram as i tend to leave chrome open with at least 20 or more tabs and plenty of windows
i keep seeing A10-5800K bundles advertised @ newegg, frys, and many others and am wondering should I go for this value priced cpu or go with the beefier am3+ platform?
