hello,
I do not speak English, I help with google.
I have a hacintosh, maybe it's time to upgrade or replace ... I state I am beginning to get interested in graphics, but also hardware and I would try to build me a new computer for me.
The characteristics of my current spot are:
Gigabyte 965P-DQ6
CPU Intel Core 2 Quad Q9650 3.0 GHz overclock can reach 3.86 GHz
Corsair DDR 2 Ram XM2-6400 (4 banks of 2 GB)
Video Card GeForce 8600GT
Would use to build the components of the model "CustoMac Pro Socket 2011"
but I have doubts about the CPU.
On the site "http://www.cpubenchmark.net/high_end_cpus.html"
displays the processors according to their performance, my current is
Intel Core2 Quad
[email protected] 4,317 $ 487.00
Using mainly graphics programs Illustrator, InDesign, Photosho and the 4 core I think they can last me, so it could be:
Intel Xeon
[email protected] 4,253 $ 299.99
Intel Core
[email protected] 9,153 $ 288.49
the maximum speed of the Xeon is lower than my current i7 seems better, but why have a lower cost?
the performance difference do you think are visible?
As an option for the motherboard I have only GA-X79-UD5, a user-level facilemte can go to overclock?
thanks for your attention
