Frankly, if you are a gamer just get a mainstream i7 and be done with it. Both my i7's cost me less to purchase than my Phenom II 940 did (and therein lies a large part of the reason why AMD is fucked nowadays).
I understand the scanning issue, interlaced modes on the Amiga were painful because it happened around 15 hz - half NTSC and PAL's normal 30hz rate. Flicker was terrible.
Care to post links to the big advantage of owning a i7 vs a i5 for gaming at the same clock speed?
AMD learned the lesson of "moar corez" apparently you have not.
Not to mention virtual corez aren't even real corez.
Ben is right, GPU is the way to go.
