    GarageGames said they are planning Linux support for v4 (which was supposed to be released this summer, but I think they are still half way into v3). As for the BeamNG itself, I think it is (almost) independent.
    I'm kind of the same, I got dual boot with Linux and Windows, I doubt I will ever get Windows again.

    That^

    You're an idiot. So AMD is better in gaming when Intel beats it most of the time?

    Haha lol. In gaming you wont notice any difference between Intel and AMD. But in everything else Intel wins. :)

    With high-end graphic cards you do notice a huge difference in most cases.

    I thought you were comparing CPUs. In terms of nvidia vs AMD GPUs you can notice a difference depending on whether or not games use physx, cuda, tressfx, etc...

    Your argument is invalid. The only thing that gives an i5 4670k a run for it's money is the FX8350. That's it (not including AMD cherry-picking CPUs and OC'ing them).

    Yes I meant CPUs. What I was saying is that when you use a high-end GPU, AMD CPUs tend to bottleneck the system because of the lower single-threaded performance. You can see that in reviews, in CPU demanding games AMD lacks behind quite a lot.

    Ahhh I see. In terms BeamNG though, an FX-8350 will be quite beneficial with 8 cores.

    Yeah it should. I can't wait to get my hands on it and start doing benchmarks.

    Yeah I might have to upgrade a 8350 myself.

    I'm thinking about getting an 8350 too, only thing is that in Brazil it's pretty expensive. Maybe I'll ask my aunt to bring one from U.S. as she lives there. And maybe a new GPU too.

    Yeah, I'm thinking of getting a new 8870 when in comes out as well as a nzxt phantom 410 case because my antec 300 barely can fit my 7770 lol

    The new FX-9590 gives a 3770 and 4770 a run for their money but at a higher price.

    Triple the price? No, it doesn't. In theory it should be assloads faster, when for that much of a price it doesn't.

    thats only in certain things because intel is more suited for office work then it gets its advatige there but amd is more suited around gaming so theres its advantige. see where im getting at though?

    I just remembered I would have to change my motherboard if I changed my CPU to AMD. I hope there are cheap Intels with a lot of cores and GHz.

    Clock speed =/= performance I can overclock an FX4300 to 5.0 GHz, but an i5-3750k 3.4 GHz will still beat it.
