When I upgraded my PC six months ago, a lot of people told me that getting an Intel i7-something CPU wouldn't be necessary for gaming (they said it would be overkill), so I got Intel i5-4690 @3.50Ghz instead. Should I never listen to other people again or is the difference not worth mentioning?

Argh same here! I built mine in October and was told I wouldn't need an i7 to handle new and upcoming RPG games. So I only have an i5-4590 @ 3.30GHz. Shet. T_T

i wouldnt worry much about your CPUs. the difference between an i5 4690 and an i7 4790 is ~2% in games as long as the game can only use 4 threads or less. in programmes/games which (can) benefit from more threads the difference of course is bigger.

but once again i´m surprised how many people obviously dont know about the Xeon E3 1231v3.

People aren't accustomed to Xeon CPUs since they're usually a workstation/server processor.

 

Hard to argue with it's value though when it's $50 cheaper than the i7 4790 at the moment.

Lol, hardly insane. Not that high, actually. only 3.4 Ghz CPU? And only a 290 for recommended specs?

The only thing the i7 has is hyper-threading, and I doubt TW3 uses it. We'll find out when DSOG tests the game I guess.

"only a 290", but the R9 290 is one of the 6 fastest singleGPU graphic cards atm.

That means no future-proofing, unless we're future-proofing by throwing a million more pixels at the screen with higher res.

And I think part of the problem is what recommended actually means. Recommended should mean maxxed with 1080p @ 60FPS, but I don't think it means that for anyone. or, if it doesn't, they should include an "optimal" that does.

"recommended" is usually faaaar away from "FHD with highest settings (including AA!) at 60fps". i doubt that i will be able to play this game at highest settings with 60fps with my GTX970, even though the official specs suggest that the game works better with Nvidia than AMD.

I suspect it'll play about as well as Unity (minus Unity's bugs and glitches).

Aw hell no, my CPU is only good enough for the minimum settings? Pre-order cancelled.

I'm joking, I didn't really pre-order. Maybe I'll watch an LP and see if the NPCs are less obnoxious.

I know you didn't pre-order, but OCing your k CPU is kind of a prerequisite now.

Ha! That's a bold assumption. Who says I'm grown up?
