Well let me help you out
I will give you some screenshots and a simple score card to light the way.
Lets start off with comparing the 2 cpus:
Rig 1 Vs Rig 2
Rig2 leads 1 vs 0
Now lets look at the two GPU's
Both GPU's are compared nicely. Lets see what a benchmark says:
Go here for a detailed benchmark , the GTX 260 won , barely.
Thats Rig2 leading by 2 vs the 0 for Rig 1.
Rig 1 has 2 drives in a stripe set , +1 for RIG1.
Rig 1 has a bigger screen (i dont see the performance increase here so i wont add a score here)
Both have the same amount of ram , both DDR3.
Both have the same OS and the same dvd roms.
Rig 2 wins the match by 1. for having a faster CPU
and with the GPU (barely) outperforming rig 1's GPU.
Im not a nvidia / ati fan boy , benchmarks is all i look at , proof is in the pudding.
As for the CPU , id say rig 2 looks alot nicer after doing some research.
Have fun and let us know what you decided to get![]()
