I've been reading around and most of you'll suggest i5 2500k I mean won't a i7 outperform i5 in games + I. The future I'm planning to buy i7 3770k I'm be doing video editing and hardcore gaming but Now I'm confused

We suggest what's best for OP considering his budget and needs. If budget isn't a problem, then i7 is absolute rocker.

For gaming both cpu and gpu are essential. So, when it comes to graphics, cpu's graphics doesn't matter that much. All matters it that how efficiently and brilliantly a cpu works along with a gpu to give you a decent gaming experience. Cpu and gpu are designed for what they can do best

First of all , Did you mentioned the thread title as "I7 Bad" ,OMG!???!!! :shocked:


Coming to the O.post ,In such cases , the CPU should be good enough , so as not to bottleneck the GPU performance.
If I were into hardcore gaming , I would have concentrated my money more on a Decent GPU rather than an extremely high-end CPU.Since , its the GPU performance that plays a major role in gaming.

AFAIK , core I5 will definitely not bottleneck a good GPU.Its a good proccy Indeed.

Spending the extra bucks will make you future-proof , definitely.
Its suggested only when you can surpass the performance given by the cheaper one , or when the future-proof factor comes into play.O/w save the Extra buck and Invest in a better Gfx card.

Ivory bridge proccessor will be highly beneficial if you are not utilising your dedicated gfx card , i.e using HD4000 only.O/W you will barely notice any performance difference.

Re: I7 bad?

Why do you need integrated graphics only? Trinity is not there to compete against i7 but its a great budget options for those who can't afford to get a descrete graphics card and want to enjoy games as long as possible. In your case a discrete graphics card is a must.

Hardcore gaming on an Integrated graphics is a very very bad idea indeed.

However , if you need a good CPU with good integrated Graphics processor , get a Ivory Bridge/3rd Gen Intel Core i5 or i7.They have a decent HD4000 intel graphics processor.

Once you say to screw IGP but again talk about trinity & IGP stuff....

For raw processing power nothing beats an i7 proccy..
Pls mention BUDGET kinda thing...
Well for your ambitious stuff go for :-D i7 3960X + GTX 690 in QUAD SLI :-D

Get Core i7 3770k and a Z77 mobo. LucidLogix will use both HD 4000 and discrete graphic card to boost fps in games.

Re: I7 bad?

Ahh trinity came to my mind well il go for i7 I need a beast processor

And about integrated gfx I was just asking bout trinity
Obviously il buy a gpu

I thought there cud be something just like 3770k without 4000 which would be cheaper
And budget for processor 21k


Ashis thanks nice answer

Re: I7 bad?

2600K is almost equal to 3770K. Actually, 2600K have better overclocking power.
As for gaming only, 2500K is the best choice which is available @~12.5K

Re: I7 bad?

2600k is a great processor too. But if your budget allows you to go for 3770k then why not. Get it.

2% higher performance (doesn't matter) and much higher temperatures (not good for overclocking) with Ivy Bridge.

You can go with Ivy Bridge but that also means buying an after-market cooler even while running at stock. Sandy gives same perfromance at an overall much lower price.
