fuck off with sandy memes

I'm 100% certain that vidya and Asiatic cuneiform won't even remotely tax my 4790k for the next few years or so, I was able to use an 1100t from 2010 to 2015 with no real issues beyond PS2 emulation, so I'm assuming the same will happen with a CPU that trades even blows with Skylake when it isn't slightly ahead in some cases

Because I went from Kentsfield to Skylake and skipped everything in between.

He whole box for £200? I have no idea about used prices but that's not bad, I've been wanting to look for another box.

>>56960964
ok, this is neat. Does amd has something like this in plans?

Devil's Canyon, m8

>>56965257
well, the pc cost £185, and i got the gpu for another 15 quid, its a shame dell is so fucking proprietary, cos the pc is basically an ITX size, but proprietary motherboard, i was thinking of getting a 2nd and using it to build an ITX machine

tfw my mobo is starting to crap the bed.

Should I just sell my 2500k and get a new mobo+processor, or try to get one that's not shit and compatible with my 2500k

>>56965312
Ah that sucks. I'd definitely not get something second ha D from HP or dell because nothing fucking tits. HP even have proprietary fan connectors that stop my server from booting without it.

Not upgrading until there's a major change to consumer parts. After Intel gets scared to death by Zen and actually has to do work

Mine's at 5,4. Prime95 26hrs stable. Can run it for at least 3hrs with 5,7. Will upgrade when CPU dies. Also, ya gonna oc, go with Evo 212, that's the one I use at least.

my thinkpads got an Ivy Bridge, that count?

>>56959847

>>56963444
trips always show the truth

2600k is still great and is really cheap too, you can get one second hand for $100 and it's still just as fast as a 6700k once you OC it.

>>56965789
kaby llake is 40% faster than skylake which is 10% faster than sandy pussy, and infinitely better than the flop that will be AMPoo Zen

Can't you just load a UEFI NVMe driver? I thought most of the point of UEFI was loadable drivers.

>>56966879

This. Dunno if you're 100% correct on the statistics, but buying new CPU's frequently just isn't worth the price performance, at least in terms of something such as gaming. Personally, just gonna stick to the same CPU until it really "bottlenecks" my graphics card. Would much rather recommend getting a nice aftermarket cooler.

Using my 2410M to compile shit on Gentoo right now

>>56965789
Ivy Bridge 10% faster
Haswell 10% faster
Broadwell 10% faster
Skylake 10% faster
Kaby Lake 10% faster

It all adds up, enjoy your OUTDATED, OBSOLETE SHIT

>>56966815
And here we have a retarded third worlder who reads articles on Currytech and then parrots them as fact, despite them being thoroughly debunked elsewhere.

I really, really hope you spend your life savings and buy a Kaby Lake chip on launch day without waiting for reviews, expecting your 40% performance increase. :^)

>>56967759
does it not multiply, surely?

>>56960186
what voltage?

I have an i5 3470 (Which is Ivy Bridge I think)
