I'm an AMD fan, but even though their higher end chips have a higher clock rate, there are fewer instructions per nm, and they need ~3x the wattage to run. The 4770 can be bought right now for $250 at microcenter (walk in) and they'll drop another ~$30 off a motherboard if you buy them together. I personally like ASrock, (asus too). Some of the ASrock boards allow for 3 monitors with onboard video...the i5/i7's integrated graphics will take advantage of this. |
