| 1173969 | 2011-02-02 08:48:00 | There are still PC(first anyway) exclusives like Natural Selection2, Red Orchestra2, Diablo3, Mass Effect3, Skyrim to name but a few there's plenty of life yet in PC gaming. I own both a 360 and a PS3, they're just sitting around gathering dust for the most part with the latter being used only as a PVR. |

| 1173971 | 2011-02-03 03:57:00 | and the difference between your Phenom II & the core CPU ??? Are you comparing my phenom II X4 to a i5/i7 Core? |

| 1173972 | 2011-02-03 07:04:00 | A great example of CPU bottleneck.....and the difference between your Phenom II & the core CPU It's a ~7% difference in framerate for a 40% increase in price (965BE vs i5-760). Sure, the i5/i7 are better performers, but they're not necessarily the bang for buck option ;) |

The original could run on a pentium. |

| 1173976 | 2011-02-03 18:31:00 | btw does anyone know the performance difference between the 460 and 560. | icow (15313) | ||
| 1173977 | 2011-02-03 19:23:00 | btw does anyone know the performance difference between the 460 and 560. I'm finding it about 15% faster than my OC'd 460 1GB in BFBC2 atm, which I suspect means it'd be something like 25 - 30% faster than a standard-clocked 460. Haven't really tested other games yet. |

| 1173978 | 2011-02-03 21:19:00 | Bear in mind the 460 has enough headroom to o/c to keep up with the 560 too. 560's are priced a tad too high, 380-400 would be a sweet spot... so imo the 460 still represents best bang for anyones buck. |
