I'm not saying that i'm playing at a constant 60+ fps,my bad,being a longtime console gamer i find myself being content with much lower fps especially in games which do not require high fps to still deliver an enjoyable experience(i'm not playing MP).I obviously get framerate drops but they're...

Can't really say anything about Metro,but my i3 2120 paired with an 6870 runs GTAIV maxed out smoothly with no lag whatsoever.

Obviously not every single multiplatform game runs at a lower res on the ps3 but some do. Check this out. http://forum.beyond3d.com/showthread.php?t=46241 Rockstar games run at an higher res on the 360.

CPU wise is more powerful.But yeah,on the gpu side the 360 has an edge and that's why multiplatform games run at a lower res on the ps3.What really makes the ps3 a better product is their first party devs.I bought the playstation 3 just for the exclusives and i wasn't disappointed.

Unless you want to use less power there is no reason to get an i3.Source games are not that demanding even if they're single threaded.Unless you wanna play at 200fps you'll be more than ok with your current setup.

Nope.Not even close.The ipc difference is enormous.You're welcome to correct me if i'm wrong.

It's been 3 weeks since i made my new build.Everything works fine except one thing:every time i turn off the computer the psu continues to emits sounds as if the pc was still on that go away only if i unplug the psu from the wall.Is that normal?And it makes a weird screeching noise whenever i...

Keep the cpu,the games you are playing are not at all cpu-intensive and they don't even need a 200$ GPU.If you want to waste money get a 6850 but anything more than that would be way overkill.My advice would be to keep the cpu and get a 5770/6770.You'll easily max out all those games.

Those are single player benchmarks.The only MP benchmark around is this one http://www.sweclockers.com/image/diagram/2506?k=142b45af179c625ccd8f53fea7385155As you can see the more the cores the better the game runs.Unless you get an in i5 which is a bit faster than the x6 even tho it has a...

i might be wrong but i think that skyrim likes fast dual core performance.In every review it seems that SB processor are way ahead of the competition.

6870 with 11.11 and then 11.11a but performance is exactly the same.

Weird,after this patch the game runs slower for me...5 fps average less and the minimum fps is down from 49 to 42.

keep the g530 and get a 6770.

I completely agree with this point.A k version of the 2120 would be extremely popular and value-wise would become the best gaming cpu.

No,BF3 MP is easily one of the most cpu demanding games out there.While i completely agree that running an i3 will give you a good gameplay experience(that's exactly what i'm getting) switching to an i5 will give you much better performance,especially at lower settings and in multi-gpu...
