It really depends on your use. If you are a gamer and a overclocker the FX4100 is easiest to get added performance from. If you are a multitasker and you do editing and rendering the X6 1045T is the best performer.

Hi

Not sure if you can get them in OZ, but whats the price of an AMD 1100T BE ?

Bigger , faster and more cores than either of those...

All the best Brett

Brett stop! You are lucky nowadays if you can get a used one for less than a new I5 2500K!

im gamer so yea. i thought tge 1045t would be the fastest?

 

[rolli59]

Not in gaming since a faster X4 will beat it, no game uses all 6 cores. Here they are all in the same performance group http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/gaming-cpu-review-overclock,3106-5.html

Because they are discontinued!

 

[stanistheman]

Hi

I realise that they are discontinued as far as production is concerned, that does not mean that suppliers are not still selling them though...

If you came into one of my shops for 1 or 100 of them, I could still get them...

All the best Brett

None of the normal Etailers here in the US have them in stock, I believe newegg sold their last one last December.

 

[stanistheman]

is the 1045t overclockable?

 

[rolli59]

Yes but not like the FX4100 where all you have to do is change the multiplier.

 

[stanistheman]

so for gaming and overclocking the 4100 is the way to go?

For overclocking and therefore gaming performance.
