If you have the bucks, then go 4770k or 4930k. If you are on a budget, then you might also consider going AMD, because the second tier AMD 8-core can be had for only $250. I'm thinking that a single core of the AMD is likely faster than a single thread of the 4770k and most probably faster than a single core of an I5 split between two instances of SC. You would have to do some research on that subject to confirm it though. If you don't have a good graphics card and would rather not purchase one, then IMO this makes AMD a even stronger consideration because the onboard video is considerably better than Intel and may be sufficient to avoid purchasing a separate card, depending on your needs. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819113346 Date Time Of Last Edit: 2014-02-23 18:02:29
