Single core power is the same, however, I think you are still saying the same thing people where 2 years ago. That multi-threaded use is the exception and not the norm, and thats just changed so much, and will continue to go down multi core path. Again, its legs we are talking about by going higher cores.
You also have to think about how AMD claims multiple cores is not like Intels. Its also not comparable because it doesnt use hyperthreading. An AMD is always half of its claimed cores as physical cores, with each core running two emulated cores.
So your 4350 is truly a 2 core, and your 8350 is really a quad core, if you where to think of them in the same way in which Intel determines how many cores a CPU has. |
Thanks for the update. I haven't been into it much the past three years or so. Used to build, but I don't keep up with the changes behind the scenes on programming as much. Now I just passively follow and do my own and close family. I always recommend Intel and if they can't afford dedicated graphics right away, save for it later.
Hoping my cousin, that is going to school for programming, will get me back up to speed in a few years haha.
I know gaming is really going towards maximizing hardware capabilities, but that's about all I've followed.
