i5 4460 Video Editing

[RedArmy49]

Hi,

Is the i5 4460 good enough for a budget gaming/video editing build? And is it worth paying more to get it over the A8 6600k?

Thanks

Yes, and possibly yes. Do you have a dedicated GPU?

i5 is a much better CPU than the A8, and worth the extra costs in my opinion. It's not a high-end chip, and both CPUs will do what you ask, but the i5 will undoubtedly provide a better gaming experience and run your editing software more quickly.

If you can afford it, Get an FX 8350 if you dont game on that PC

Yes i defenitly agree with you. the 8350 it may not be the best for gaming but for multi-threader apps and tasks its a great processor, even better than the mentioned 4460.

Scroll down to the benchmarks and you will see that the amd beats the i5 in almost every test
