Hey guys, Ive been using dolphin for years now on all kinds of intel systems. I have ran a A10 6800k, 4670k, g3258, 2600k, 4360 and currently use a 4770k. (Yes I have a problem)
My question is,with the newest builds running so well with less power and since the inclusion of directx 12 support ive noticed even less usage on my i7 (All praise is due to the community of developers of course), can I afford to go back to a 6800k and produce an enjoyable experience?
I seem to remember 3 years ago that the 6800k couldnt quite cut it in games such as SMG. My guess is that with the vast speed improvements and also the dx12 offloading it ahould be ~50% faster than my last 6800k build from 3 years ago?
What do you guys think, I know he vast majority of us game on intel and suggest using such parts...but is it really a must anymore?
