which CPU to choose?

Lga but buy an old xeon on aliexpress for cheap

>>59408809
the q9650 is near enough the same price as the equivalent lga751 Xeon these days so I don't see the point in doing the 755 to 751 mod

>>59408859
A Xeon would probably run faster

>AMD phenom II x6 1055t
fuck yea
shit runs modwern titles without a hitch long as you OC it a bit.
MOAR COARS was actually a good thing, and it outperforms buldozer in a few instances

Q9650 is still pretty capable when paired with a decently modern video card.

this is a tough choice. dammit

>>59408939
phenom II should be cheaper too
i remembver picking one up for $80 5 years ago lmao.
probably half that price by now

>>59409328
50 eurobux on AliExpress for the phenom ii x6 and 55 for the q9650

>>59408789
The Phenom is the better cpu, this honestly shouldn't be a discussion.

Paying for a 1055t when u can find one literally at a dump.

Exept it's not. It lacks sse4 and q9650 will btfo it despite 2 moar coars in anything even remotely modern.

>A duo core with a goddamn fucking 1050 TI

That's bullshit. The Q9550-Q9650 should be shitting on a GT 600-750, let alone a GTX650 or a goddamn 980+

Let's not mention that the super low-end motherboard will eventually come into play sooner or later.

well if you value your money you're far better off with the phenom.
it still has new platforms being made for it while also being faster than the intel
and it's cheaper...
danm dude wtf are you waiting for?

>>59408789
The Phenom definitely

go with the phenom, i built a pc with shit parts i pulled out of goodwill and still runs games up until today.

PHENOM IS KING.
