Re: i5 8th gen vs i5 10th gen

Anyway if you have a K or KF SKU CPU you can easily overclock it by simply upping the multiplier...
So I started off with an i5 8400 which did ok kinda on BF2042. I moved up to an i5 10040 and it really didnt do anything. One of my gamer buddies told me I should run the i7 10700 because BF wouldnt lag or have FPS drops like Im having now because 128 conquest needs 8 cores.
Is he right? Ill buy that i7 tonight if thats the case.
