AMD vs Intel

the 2600k will kill the 1100t, but 1, with stock cooler you won't get past 4, prob not past 3.7, but for gaming, the 2500k is just as fast, only fsx is made to use the i7's extra threads, the 100 buck diff from the i5 to the i7 is the addition of hyper threading, so they basically add the lines for the i7 to have 8 cores, so it can use more of the core at once, but it still isn't 8 cores, and almost nothing knows how to use that mony cores, so they only get used in de/encoding and extreme multitasking.
 
Intel Core 2 CPUs are still available, for instance, but they've been around for a long time, no longer represent a good deal and unless you're working with an old motherboard, are probably best avoided.

Instead you'll be considering a Core i3, Core i5 or Core i7 processor, which will deliver budget, mid-range or high-end performance, respectively. Except, of course, it's not quite as simple as that, because these CPUs now come in two main flavours.

The mainstream Core i3, i5 and i7 processors are available in a Socket LGA1156 package (this defines how the CPU connects to the rest of your system, and so means you'll need a Socket LGA1156 motherboard as well). This doesn't represent the very latest in Intel technology, but it's relatively reasonably priced, and there are plenty of compatible motherboards around at all price levels.

The latest Core i3/ i5/ i7 processors, code-named Sandy Bridge and available in an LGA1155 package, are rather more interesting. Not only are they up to 40% faster than their predecessors, but they also come with an on-board graphics chip, so if you're not looking for much in the way of video performance then you probably won't have to buy a graphics card.

Thats just to easy! Copy and paste

i'm pretty sure it's either a no-life spammer or like a weird program someone made since i can't see someone looking for the info then just copying and pasting it, i put it in the spam thread asking if it would be considered spam or not, but he has 5 or so posts exactly like this one.
