I'm building a new rig and got stuck deciding what GPU I should get.

Also, is i7-4770k worth the extra 100€ or should I stick to i5-4670k and is there any advantages to i7 now or in the future worth the extra money?

Coh2 doesn't support SLI, so for coh2 a 780gtx would be better

If you only game on your pc an expensive processor isn't a smart investment as most games are gpu limited. If you do things like video editing it's a different story though.

I would stick with a single GTX780 as joe stated. As for the cpu I would go with the i5 4670 unless you have money to burn. But for gaming, you won't see any real difference with those two cpu's so go for the cheaper one.

I actually do some video editing and shooping. I'm assumming i7 with HT is beneficial at editing etc, but still, is it worth the extra money if i5 can handle video editing too.

What about future games?

i7 will benifit encoding and editing but practically none in gaming.

Always always always get the single highest end card you can afford, then later if you feel like it you can always get another.

Agreed with all the posts above.
Even i5 4430 combined with HD 7870 will get you really really nice graphs.

780 + i5 is more than enough.

Lady Xenarra: Does anyone else think that USF needs buffs? It feels like they’re on life support sometimes

Willy Pete: @Rosbone Ahh I missed that memo. I still think its a bad decision though. Adds frustration for players and isnt gonna make them that much money

Rosbone: It is also good they left it free until after the free to play weekend. Points for that.

Rosbone: But I agree, the cost to get a full decent Coh game pushing $115 US is not the best idea. Especially when it needs so much more work for casuals.

Rosbone: To be fair, it was a thank you to early fans right? They said it was not free for long and it would become a pay DLC at some point.

Willy Pete: Re-releasing free DLC so they can charge new players money for it. Brilliant marketing strategy

Rosbone: Congrats to Relic. Looks like Coh3 has finally usurped Coh2 s the popular Coh. You smell terrific.

Willy Pete: @Nickbn you didn't ask a question, and this is a chat box...
20 Mar 2025, 13:11 PM

Nickbn: @Rosbone it's incredibly rude to speak on someone elses behalf, especially when a question is directly adressed to them. I understand your passion for the subject at hand but I want to hear from him.
20 Mar 2025, 10:16 AM

Rosbone: @Nickbn No, I am just saying people should not be using any Relic owned forum since they have proven they ban anyone who says true things about Coh3.

Nickbn: @Rosbone do you speak on his behalf? I didn't know. In that case keep us updated please.
