For those of you who are obsessed with getting the maximum performance out of your gaming, it would appear that new information has hit the web about Guild Wars 2 CPU performances will have you checking your specs.
(Guild Wars 2, PC)
Well AMD is the smaller of the two, but if true they have secured console deals and are working with IBM to produce the chips for them AMD might take a new leap in a year or two.
AMD is decent for mid-range CPU. Intel has the High end locked down.
AMD is still nice for those budget rigs out there, 70 bucks cheaper for FX-4170 then the i5 SB @ 3ghz and I could imagine just a few frames under the i5
I love AMD but even i had to face reality, INTEL is just Lord and Master when it comes to CPU's.
AMD is decent for mid-range CPU. Intel has the High end locked down.
When AMD old Phenom II X4 and X6 can still match the FX 4cores and 6cores you know something is wrong.
I have a i7-960 and a 560 Ti. I think GW2 will run smoothly.
