Re: New Computer Pretty much all I play now is BF4...every now and then, I'll fire up my PS3 and play either Madden or GTA5....
EDIT: I see everyone getting intel processors now...is that the way to go?? Ever since I started building computers, everyone's said AMD is for gaming, Intel is for every day computing...has that changed now?

Re: New Computer ^Pretty much. If you just got a new PC, buy GTAV for PC when it'll release. That's basically the only game you need atm

Re: New Computer as far as cpu is concerned I think it's personal preference. I got the Intel because I wanted an Intel computer. I got the 4690k because Its the best I could get for the money.

Re: New Computer I just built a new rig too. Went with AMD because it was way cheaper.
Specs are: 8cores @ 4ghz, 32GB RAM, GTX970, 500G SSD. Shit's boss.

Re: New Computer AMD is cheaper for the same performance. I'm not entirely sure about the current generation, but the only time I usually bought Intel is that for a while, they had a top processor that was slightly better than AMD's top processor. Anything less than that and AMD was a better deal.

Re: New Computer i've been thinking of getting the i7-5820k but the fx-8350 with asus sabertooth 990fx should be a lot cheaper. Same 32gb of ram and eventually gtx970 reference unless they throw another gfx card our way. I'm mainly goin for better cpu (from Q9550) for virtual cisco router/switch work once I get into it.
