amd phenom ii x6 1100t BE or core i5 2500k

^^ Get the i5 2500k. Its a no brainer. Current phenom 2 x6 cpu's doesn't make any sense to buy anymore.

Already 2 topics with same topic name and Content.............Look before opening new ones. and even i5 2400 beats any AMD Phenom II produced till date. i5 2500k owns them even more.

Get an i5 and MSI H61M-E23-B3 board for 3.4k if you dont need to overclock or a full ATX mobo.
