I wish i could buy a dedicated gaming CPU and a dedicated gaming motherboard, and that i could have a dedicated gaming OS coexisting with a normal OS to use for when i want to spend time writing, editing photos or videos. The best possible performance and the best possible stable frametime, where every resource is spend on the gaming performance, and not tons of background tasks/apps that end up wasting my electric bill.

Possibly oversimplyfying the above statement, but i think you get what i mean.

Do you think the cpu makers are being ignorant to what a big potential market there is? Or would it be suicide for them to compete with themselves having both dedicated gaming cpu's and more generalised cpu's with strong multitasking?

I just hate the whole situation where i cant decide what i'm basically spending my money on. I buy a new washing machine and i end up getting a model that has wifi and app control, because i couldnt find one without. I'd rather have one that is more effective at washing and saving energy and water, for friggs sake.

I am a layman, but I think the AMD processors with the 3D cache are the closest thing to a dedicated gaming CPU, since that kind of cache appears to be mostly for the benefit of games. I don't have think the processors with that kind of cache are present in laptops for work or workstations.

Sure, the AMD cpu's wirh 3D cache are a step in the right direction but Intel also need to get focused on gaming specialised cpu's. Especially with the whole efficiency cores, thread scheduling and the latency costs all that includes...

My dream cpu has 6-8 cores, 12-16 threads, lots of cache, mainly similar to 3D cache, and designed to offer the minimum of latency of communication between all components, ie pci express, chipset, memory, sound driver.

I hope the upcoming Intel cpus for desktop will bring the rumoured big cache..
