The 5820k is only $300 from Microcenter, a great price for a 6 core, 12 thread processor. I'm planning on going that route for my next computer in the next few months.
When baking diffuse to diffuse, remember to shut off AA and Global Super Sampling otherwise it's going to blur things. If you turn both those things off you get a pixel prefect transfer (aside from any rescaling problems you introduce).

On that note, thanks to Vailias for all the useful UDK-related posts he's made on here. Anyway the video is only about a…
