Greetings to all,
I am seeking advice and recommendations on a machine upgrade that I would like to complete in the near future.
Currently, I am running with system with Core2Duo Wolfdale.
I do a considerate amount of media transcoding, seldom compiling, and light gaming. I am torn between i7-3770k, i7-3930k, or wait for IB-E and weighing the Upfront cost vs Performance vs Annual Energy Cost. I plan to stay with the new platform for as long as I can. The machine will have 24/7 uptime and be under load often.
Can someone please make up my mind?
Thanks!
