Depends on what you're going for, for me personally all I care about is the benchmark for SLI or XFire, Amd or Intel all clock differently depending on CPU. Personally I'm gonna pick the CPU that benchmark's the highest with card's I'm SLI'ing or Xfiring. But you're not gonna need to SLI or XFire for EQ.

That is kinda what I'm saying though. The benchmarks are sorta meaningless for EQ (granted most people use their shit for more than EQ). Lets say the AMD benchmarks at 900 and the Intel at 1010, but 200 is all you need to run EQ without any processor related issues if you feelers what I'm tryin' to get at.

yeah only thing that matter for EQ at this point is hard drive so you can zone faster than your opponent.

and it doesnt even come with a SSD....

fuck man if he took my scraps for 199$ i could build him a pc thats going to run eq faster than that "thing" he bought.

Well, if you used parts from 10 years ago you would be running on shit that wasn't even conceived yet when this game was designed, lol.

Not sure I'd want a lot of people jacking around with RAM drives though.

For EQ it's pointless. You wouldn't even need to SLI or Xfire for EQ. Just saying Intel doesn't always smoke AMD when it comes to gaming, sometimes AMD's clock allot higher than Intel benchmarks for gaming performance. But AMD's almost always require a very custom cooling system that often negates the cheaper cost of the CPU.

For a solely EQ computer I'd prolly go with whatever is cheaper and compare the benchmarks on equally priced computers. But yea I agree that for Eq it don't matter.

Forgot the mobo, case, operating system, etc...

A lotta times you can reuse stuff (especially the case) but that isn't really the discussion so you have to account for it even though its not a big cost. And telling people to pirate an OS to build a cheap machine is pretty dumb.

I did some spin kicks on the beach with my shirt off no Chinese tats tho... Getting ready for you jib!

This is why I buy other games like Shadow of Mordor and force myself to play them to justify the cost of my computer.

I have an 8 core running at 4ghz or slightly higher and I actually had to underclock it to 3.6 in order for eq to run, even with the multi-cpu fix etc if you are running over 4ghz you may need to underclock just to get it to work.
