E7400 or E6850 [the winner is... E6850]

hey girls... :D

I'm changing my old and crappy E6300 (1.8Ghz)

I have the choice between an E7400 and an E6850 (second-hand. Both at the same price: 40€).

For specifications see here:

https://ark.intel.com/Compare.aspx?ids=30785,36500, ( or https://ark.intel.com/Compare.aspx?ids=27248,30785,36500,

for performance, see here:

https://www.hardware.fr/articles/778-1/comparatif-geant-168-processeurs-intel-amd.html

knowing that I mainly aim for performance gain in games. This processor will be partnered with an ASUS EAH6850 DirectCU/2DIS/1GD5 graphics card and 4GB of DDR3 OCZ PC10666 Gold Edition

I already have my little idea of the pros and cons but I would also like your opinion :bravo:


go go go and thanks in advance :D

For me, it'll be the 6850!

And in terms of overclocking, it's no contest!

The E6850, by far.

With an OC, it'll be far better than the 7400.

Hi,
same, 6850.
For 40€ it's not bad, but I think your GC will be a bit bottlenecked by the proc, which isn't powerful enough to get the full max out of an HD 5850.

Si t'as quelque chose à dire, dis le
Si c'est des conneries, ferme la !

no compatible port to do the update. So I'm staying on LT+ 1.0. And anyway my pc is still messed up. It restarts, crashes, freezes... anyway it's a mess :cry:
I'm waiting for the new psu from the repair shop (right now I have a big mess). then I'll still need to change the graphics card and if it still messes up then I'll eat my hat :evil: :D
