Hi there, if I wanted to build a cheap computer now, until Ivy bridge-E comes out, which processor should I go for:
1. Intel Skulltrail 2600K Extreme 5.0GHz
2. 3700K EXTREME Intel Core i7 2600K.
3. Extreme Edition i7-990x 3.46 GHz, i can get this chip new for £200, but dont know if it's worth it
4. Intel I7 2700
The first two chips are from E-Bay New, but do not know this extreme 3700, I thought the i7 2700 was the fastest chip Intel done in this range, but I’m not that clued up on computers. I have spoken to the person with the Intel Skulltrail 2600K Extreme he says it's far faster than the I7, is this true?
Also which is the best board and memory for games, in whichever chipset u think is fastest.I also play onling games, is there anything to make the game play quicker, I on vergin 30gb but does not seam that fast
Willing to go up to £1,500 max for this computer
Thanks again for your help
