>>58910522
this guy doesn't look like a gamer

>>58910522

i was under the impression that was only if you are recording and playing at the same time and you are some autistic let's play youtuber

>>58910636
Yep, and that's where Ryzen 8C/16T comes in. Fuck Intel for exorbitant prices. They should have released 6C/12T on consumer i7 two years ago.

>>58910522
I won't upgrade from i5 in another 5 years. I'm no gaymur.

nigga it's tech dealz

He looks like a salesman.

>>58910522
No. He is correct about some games requiring 4 or more cores, but a 4 core processor isn't limited to the i7 line if I remember right.

He really means htt

does he also sell delidding tools?

>>58910522
Yes you need i7 for gayming, but if you're straight i5 is more than enough.

>Moar Cores (TM) are needed for gaming

Sounds like the age of AMD has begun.

Not really, 1 AMD core is half the power of an Intel one.

Good games work even on the most toaster tier hardware.

i7 is needed only if you have a gtx1080+

>>58911077
I've a 4 core i5 for years.

>>58910522
i7 for video recording, editing, rendering, and 3d modeling.

Not for videogames or mainstream users

>>58910522
No

>>58910522
Only retards play modern games, they're all trash.
