Time for a new rig, have I got this right?
-
With the arrival of BMS 4.33 I have finally conceded that I have reached the limits of my rig and will need to get a new system.
I am now face with the decision of whether to go Intel or AMD.
Having read the section in the new manual regarding ‘The quest for FPS’ I understand that for BMS, a faster processor is more critical than having one with multiple cores that are slower.
I am possibly looking at something Intel i5 or AMD FX6xxx.
I have read articles that indicate that Intel might be a better option rather than an AMD with more cores? Am I understanding this correctly? -
try one of these intel with 128MB level 4 cache . just an idea….

4 core is probably enough for day to day programs. you seems to not have specific requirement , then i would say , go for an intel i5. falcon is , anyway , totaly stranger to multicore , from what i read , and what i see
you dont do overclocking ? go for one of these i5 with integrated GPU and 128MB level 4 cache/gpu vram .
