Thread: Building a new RIG

Swap out the Phenom for an 8 core FX. And get the 990fx Sabertooth board. In every day computing and most games you will never notice a performance difference between that setup and an Intel setup. Unless you are going to be doing hi end photo/video editing like the op, Intel is overkill and not worth the price increase.
