What is the point of this thread ?Maybe because at new egg and amazon I could only find it for 200$ as you didnt post proof of it being 140$ in any of your posts. Did I ever say I did not want a processor other than the Phenom II? I said countless times that I do not want an overpriced intel processor. If your able to find the processor that's even better or gets the job done at around 80-100$ be my guest. Its not just about the processor, is their any ram,gpu,ect.
Why did you mention 200$ while you can't pay 140$ for an i5 3450 ? . Even if you bought the fastest Phenom II x4 980 , 80$ G2120 still beat it
Is this pc good enough?

Thank You for your help, and patience. Sorry if I was rude to any of you earlier, its just so frustrating creating the best pc within a budget. Il just grit my teeth and pay the 200$ for the intel processor. That build you made was certainly perfect, so il try that out.
Guess you can't buy i5 3450 then
As said before , Pentium Ivy Bridge(IB) [2 cores 2 threads] = Core i3 IB without Hyper Threading [ HT = 2 cores 4 threads] _If you build this PC for video encoding software & Dolphin , you should pick this i3 since HT will help you alot _If you build this PC for Dolphin only , you should pick this Pentium because Dolphin doesn't care about HT Ofcourse , the i3 is abit faster than Pentium in Dolphin (3.1 vs 3.3GHz) i5 3570k i5 3570 k = unlocked CPU (you can overclock to your heart content) . Without k , you have to buy Asrock Z77 mobo and use No k overclocking function Edit : I forgot to mention Asrock no k overclocking function does not work with i3 and Pentium . If you got the i5 with low price somehow , you should do it otherwise pair either i3 or Pentium with any "B75" motherboard and don't overclock Laptop: Mini PC :: |
