/edit: got the Phenom II 965 /case closed thanks for you help!
Hi folks!
I was planning to upgrade my CPU this year but seeing how the prices are on peek right now and Intel monopolizing the desktop-cpu market I thought of some temporary upgrade till the situation gets better. But since there is such a giant gap between Intel and AMD (at last for gaming) in performance I don't really know what AMDs are actually viable (since they focused on completely different use with their 6+ core). I thought Phenom II 965 (or better - till 980?) was the last produced viable CPU I might want. Maybe you guys can give me some insights what AMDs are (okay-) performer for MMORPG games / HD Videos and 2 Monitor use.
My current spec:
AMD Athlon X3 450
MSI 870 G45 AM3
8GB Ram
5770 HD Radeon
