Intel makes quality cpu's that are great for gaming. I want a system That will do more. Also Intel price's are to costly for my buget for this build. It must be able able to game and run creation kit at once. edit videos . be able to watch net flix or hulu and what ever else I need to do. I am not a heavy gamer Fallout and a few racing games. 30 fps for Fallout 4 is fine with me. Then there's also the possibility that game maker's may make use of the fact that there's more core's to use as well. My bottom line is i need a multi versatile system that will do what i ask of it. that's my first priority. I could build a gaming set up for less cost wise with just Intel parts.
