Why not

>>56255193
Nice setup, I was gonna get the 8350 but I'll keep saving and get a Z68+2600k.

What makes you really think so?

>>56255361
the cost of Z68 motherboards makes that a pretty stupid idea, just get a current gen i5. You'll save maybe $50-75 by buying used, but you'll be stuck on a platform that is 5 years old with no upgrade path besides a new motherboard.

Get the newest motherboard you can afford and then you can always upgrade the CPU in a few years.

>>56257083
Actualy there still is an upgrade path, you can stick in a 3770k with faster ram.

>>56257393
yeah but thats not an upgrade, that's a side grade with hyper threading.

It makes far more sense to buy a motherboard with the newest chipset/socket you can afford, that way it has the longest possible upgradeability.


Buying Z68 5 anda half years after it's release is pants on fire retarded.

>>56257454
If it makes more sense depends on what you are going to use it for.

Z68x and 2600k's can be picked up for practically nothing nowadays and with a decent overclock they will do the job just fine (and Sandy bridge overclocks like the best).

150-200 bucks for a z68x with an I7 2600k

Or 450-500 bucks for an I7 6700k with a fitting motherboard.

Getting the newest stuff now, when you don't use the extra percentages of performance is what I would call pants on retarded.

Got this laptop for free from a woman who had divorced from her husband. It was just in storage and she couldn't figure out what was wrong with it. Nothing apparently though I'll admit it took me a few minutes to understand which way they wanted the damn power adapter to be plugged in.

>tfw this is the most powerful computer I've ever used and it has a 6 year old CPU & mobile GPU

>>56257495
On ebay Z68 motherboards go for $75-150+ depending on the board. Some can go for over $250, used on ebay.

The 2600k used on ebay goes anywhere from ~$70-140, higher for ones with particularly good OC results.


So you're looking at MINIMUM $150, and likely upwards of $250 unless you're getting super cheap quality shit that didn't even cost much in the first place.


And like I said, buy the MOTHERBOARD that is the newest you can afford, i'd take a 6600k+Z170 over a 2600k and Z68, sure the 2600k has hyper threading, but the 6600k is so much newer that it wont matter in the slightest and it will still perform better.

Not to mention having M.2/U.2, DDR4, USB 3.1, USB Type-C, upgraded iGPU for game encoding or other video encoding, etc, etc.


It's not just about what CPU gets the highest number in a benchmark.

The latency and overall quality of life improvements that have been made between the 2500/2600k and the 6600k/6700k are more than worth the $100-150 premium.

I bought my z68x with a 2500k for 140 euro, and that was 1,5 years ago.

I then sold my 2500k for 70 euro and got a 2600k for 110 euro, they are cheap as fuck.

Also the 6600k is faster yes, but the difference is very small, and that's 5 years of generational improvement.

Pic related, seeing as how a 6600k setup will cost you more than twice what a 2600k setup would cost you, you would be mad to always buy the newest stuff, unless you absolutely need the newest shit for work or something

>>56257604
Also the 6600k is running much faster ram, keep that in mind

>>56257604
I can get a 6600k, motherboard, and 8GB of DDR4 RAM TODAY for ~$320

It would cost me RIGHT this second ~$270 to buy a decent Z68 motherboard and 2600k on ebay, if I waited around I MIGHT be able to find a better deal, but it's no guarantee.

I dont give a shit what your eurocurrency can buy you, a 2600k in the USA is the most retarded purchase you could buy, especially if you're already coming from a 6 year old platform (AM3+ and 8350), a 2600k and Z68 is basically the SAME exact features, but a slightly better IPC.

What a fucking joke of an "upgrade".


Again, in the US it would save you ~$50, that $50 should just be spent on the new motherboard and you can buy a 6700k or 7700k used in a few years if you want something bettter.

>>56257604
I have a feeling i5 is going to be phased out of gaming soon. It will run games on low setting only.

>>56257660
Look at this mad Ameriblob getting all greacy and sweaty by seeing hard numbers that he overspend on his 6600k.

I'm kekking hard right here, keep buying all the latest and greatest without actualy researching anything you idiot.

In a way that it looks nice in a benchmark, but if you don't actualy use it for video rendering or other stuff it is useless

In a way that you paid 100% extra for 20-30% more performance

Well considering my 17TB of storage space, and the fact I use a low end video card, MAYBE, just MAYBE I do some encoding instead of gaming.

>>56257744
How does that make any sense? They get better multithreading and somehow you think they won't utilize it?

>>56257813
the 2600k has better multithreading than the 2500k...

that was what almost 6 years ago now? Why haven't they utilized it?

So, 10-people. Are you at least still on 1511?

That's just for porn though, be honest

How much of a pain will it be to move my OS, 2 or 3 games, to an SSD?

>>56257829
They do in that benchmark.

>>56257946
yup, 15-20% different on one of the most well threaded titles released in recent memory.

The witcher 3 will even fully utilize 8 or even 10 cores on the 6950x.

In the majority of games this isn't the case.

But hey, i guess your argument hinges on the best case scenario.

Why do you retards suggest speccy again? It's awful. It can't even detect RAM properly, misreads people's overclocks, misreads people's temperatures, isn't even free software, and doesn't do hidpi scaling correctly
