I've been playing RO2 since release on my E8400 and I just upgraded to 2500k (I know it's right before Bulldozer release...I don't think BD will give Intel Competition in gaming, besides, it will give me another excuse to upgrade my 2nd rig)
Anyways, WHAT a difference. Game is SO smooth right now.
Keep in mind I'm playing it with the same 460GTX I used with E8400. Also I've tried many settings with E8400/460GTX (lowering etc) and although it was playable it was never as smooth as SB.
I guess you don't realize it until you switch.
Regardless, I thought I would let you guys know. For those that enjoy the game and still rock Dual Cores....might want to think about upgrading.
