Thank You Dude!! You are Such a Genius.Thankx again.God Bless You...
Well Need Another Favour??
What abt the 4th Generation Processors of Intel.I heard that Intel will launch them in this July.
Is that Better??
Leo De Harsh,
Ah, the Famous Haswells of the Future -sounds like a Sci-Fi franchise doesn't it?
Yes, I've seen reports of "leaked" reports of the upcoming Haswell CPU's and a list of those i5's and i7's such as "i7-4770K" or in other words, where a "3" went before, put a "4" in front of any i5- or i7- model number.
[Edit >] Coincidentally, a few hours after writing this reply in which I mentioned I hadn't read anything about the Haswell Extreme processor, our friend Tom's Hardware published a first specification for the "i7-4960X", that is supposed to be released in September, 2013. This is the Ivy Bridge 22nm architecture, has six cores, fifteen MB cache, and runs at 3.6GHz with 4.0 Turbo. That compares to the current i7-3690X > Sandy Bridge 32nm, six cores, fifteen MB cache, and running at 3.4GHz and 3.9 Turbo. One feature that separates the new Haswell is that it supports 1866 RAM instead of 1600. Of the Haswells tested so far have been running about 10% faster than- as stock clock speeds are about 200MHz faster than Gen 3. I don't know about the price, but Intel seems to keep prices of successors similar and also doesn't drop the price for the earlier ones, which would undercut sales of the new ones.
I'm of two minds about waiting for Haswells as overclocking can make a Sandy Bridge as fast, plus it's possible to buy RAM to overclock or that is already overclocked. I've read varying reports, but there is a possible issue of the tighter lithography making Ivy Bridge run a bit hotter, but of course a well-thought out, efficient liquid cooling system and case air handling can take care of that. The Haswells with integrated graphics (I think it's called "4600", report that it is noticeably better, but that's immaterial to your proposed system. I can't say that waiting three-four months will mean any substantial advantages. I see systems often on Passmark baselines in which clever 1st and 2nd generation i7- systems outperform 3rd generation.
A couple of other thoughts > Before buying graphics cards, look into any games you're likely to ever even test drive and check to see if the games are CUDA accelerated, or are Open CL, DirectX and so on. This can affect the choice of video card. If they're CUDA -orientated, then the dual GTX 680's will push things along nicely as well. There's a new Radeon, the HD 7990 (probably quite expensive), with dual GPU's and apparently very high performance -that competes against the GTX 690 that might be a better bet.
Again, some other important components > CPU (liquid is more effective) and possible RAM cooling, the case- roomy, lots of fans, and with good air flow, quiet, and of course the drives and RAID. To me. these forums tend to concentrate on the processing hardware- CPU and GPU and not the output hardware- sound and monitor. In other words, there is much talk of high performance processors, RAM, video cards, and fast SSD /HD's, but not enough on sound cards, speakers, and the monitor(s).
Complicated!
