| They are coming out at the same time late 2014 or early 2015. Good combo. Remember if you have a Intel CPU dont go with a AMD GPU, If you have AMD CPu dont go with Nvidia. |

@OP I read an article about broadwell, all I could understand was that it was smaller, that isn't going to convince me to buy it.
I still haven't looked into the GTX 800 :P
@Half I heard about it, a fast LGA 1150 CPU and LGA 1150 motherboards are also cheap, this is great news! And the CPU it's self is 84$

| Pentium isnt really suitable for gaming, More for office work, Since Intel is celebrating 20 years of Pentium its now unlocked meaning you can Overclock with it. |

| I never said it couldn't cool, I said they dont just perform well because they are competing to each other. Thats why Watch Dogs run in Nvidia card better and BF4 runs in AMD better. |

@equin
The CPU doesnt give a damn what GPU its communicating to, they do not synergise each other nor interfere with each other depending on the brand |

Because why not? There's practically two brands in CPUs and GPUs so obviously there's going to be all sorts of combinations |

| 4 cores on an Intel Processor is stronger than a 8 Core AMD Processor, Explain that? |

| They really only have 4 actual cores, it's because of hyper-threading that each core really acts as 2. |

| Woops, my bad. I interchanged hyper-threading with SMT which is AMD's propietary. I can see why you were confused. |

I'm not saying that the reason AMD customers go with AMD CPU GPU combos is because of budget/preference but it's exactly the dang reason.
And Intel/Nvidia customers have money for the premium performance, or just don't want AMD.
The reason the two don't mingle much is because one is budget The other is performance |
