I have one and I know that is not true.CPU is very important I don’t know what new age bus you just jumped off but the CPU will always be very important.Now this is not necessarily about the Wii U but more about your comment.I would love to see you use a single core CPU and pair it with a higher end video card. I would really love to because I know for a damn fact it will run like absolute crap and is actually almost impossible because you can’t pair the best GPU’s of now with CPU’s from 5-4 years ago, you obviously don’t know much about computers..With each new jump in CPU comes a new pin which will need a new motherboard. Each new motherboard brings higher performance, each new motherboard supports better graphics cards, better RAM and the list goes on.If you were to use old ass CPU’s chances are your motherboard will be old as crap also, meaning your ram will be older, your graphics card won’t be that extreme because it won’t support the newest PCI Express, your RAM will be older, everything practically even if you say got a GTX 580, sure it will be acceptable, just like the Wii U is acceptable but would it be what a PC should be and does that mean the CPU will save it? No.Hell I know that from experience, I have done that with single core CPU’s 4-5 years old even dual core and it sucks. I live and breathe computers sadly and I have had ton’s and built many.. I could literally build one right with random parts laying around or a couple for that matter..GPU is crap compared to the CPU but of course having a decent GPU is necessary but CPU handles a huge majority of the work..You would actually have much much better luck doing it the complete opposite and actually getting a higher end CPU and a newer but low memory graphics card that just has better memory and express 3.0.You really can’t have one or the other that sucks badly and expect to get a good experience out of it but unless you are just used to playing on garbage PC’s I guess it’s acceptable, but not with me.. PC is my top gaming machine.Point is the CPU is definitely more important.
