per COD, any advantage between these two CPUs?
I have a CoD-specific quandary (again). The Intel 2500k processor versus the i-7-920? I know the older 920 supports hyper-threading, and that the 2500k does not. The 2500k can be over-clocked quite easily (with air cooling) to levels that would strain a 920-based system (making that system a power-hog in the process, plus more heat).
If CoD is not coded for hyper-threading, then is there any benefit to be gained from using the 1366 platform versus the 1155 platform for Cod? In other words, would CoD be better served to have a multi-core processor that can more easily deliver high CPU frequencies (4.5~4.9ghz?), but no hyper-threading? As far as system Architecture goes, I'm leaning towards one GPU presently, with an eye to a second one some time later. I have not seen much to show any advantage of 2x16 PCI-e lanes versus 2x8 pci-e lanes for video through put when it comes to two GPUs.
I'm sure this has been covered somewhere, but I'm focusing on two specific CPUs and their attendant architectures.
