Hi folks,
Im new here, so I thought I'd have an intro with my 1st THREAD....
RE: Core i5 750 vs i7 860 - Best value for money including Overclocking too.!
I have both the Core i5 750 2.66Hz o/c'd to 4.2Ghz and i7 860 2.8Ghz o/c'd to 3.8Ghz both on (ARCTIC Freezer Pro 7 Rev.2) and both MSi P55 GD65 Motherboards...
The only difference is £60 in extra for the i7 860, however, for most people they are still stuck away back in the "Core 2" days... I was there too, but in Nov 2009 I changed and by Xmas, I had both 2 new rigs.
Im not a gamer, just desk top publishing, Photoshop and video editing.... etc.
Back to my thread, what do you think what P55 setup is best, and why? you can include all the new i5's and i7's..... H55 & H57 if you like also... as they can hold all.!
Thanks for all your contributions....
