About 6 months ago, I bought an Athlon II x4 620. Since then, AMD has released its hexa-core CPUs, the 1055t and 1090t BE. Both of these would work in my board. My PC is mainly used for moderate gaming and video editing/transcoding.
My question now is this. If I can sell the Athlon to a friend for ~$70, should I buy one of the 6-core series, or would I see little increase in performance? I'm leaning towards the 1055t, since it is cheaper and I am not planning on overclocking.
Thanks for any advice you can give me.
