Amd cpu | Forums

Been running IL2 on a computer with Intel CPU for some time now but am considering perhaps an AMD CPU in the future build. Any difficulties running it under that type of processor?

I've been using AMD for the past 12 years with several different processors from the XP1600 up to my current FX60, with no issues whatsoever.. I intend to upgrade soon to the current FX line now that some of the prices are coming down in anticipation of the new FX chips which will be using the same chipset as the current line but are expected to be 15-25% faster.. I am looking at either an FX 6100 or an FX 8120 leaning towards the 8120 now that the price has dropped to within $20 of the 6100 on this GA-990FXA-UD3 Socket AM3+ 990FX ATX AMD Motherboard $230.98 and $251.98 respectively.

I have found AMD to be reliable, less pricey and while they benchmark differently from many of the Intel offerings in parctice I have had no regrets whatsoever.
