The i5-6600K is $170, if you buy it and an LGA1151 motherboard you get $30 off the motherboard. I'm not shilling I actually just grabbed the combo :| My DDR3 system died 2 months ago

>>57520696
Hardly le ebbin me-me, if Zen is flop we'll all just buy Intel, if anyone thinks Intel CPUs are going to go up in value between now and then are sorely mistaken.
>>
>>57520108
Kaby Lake will fuck Zen.
>>
>>57523316
Seeing as how the 6core and 8core cpus have been a complete flop for gaming I highly doubt the the 4cores will go down in value any time soon. If anything they may go up because of the crazy cost of the 6/8core cpus.

Why would they want even less sales?

How?

It's no different from skylake

>>57523423
>euros
found the problem :^)
>>
>>57523426
It's not that people don't buy it because it's too expensive. It's that people don't buy it because benchmarks show it to have less than 1-5% at best performance increase with games. The majority of games being less than 1 fps from a 6700k.

>hellacore

Considering AMD is a good 3-5 years behind even with Zen, then thats good enough

When they sell a CPU or motherboard they take down your name as well as the serial number of the CPU/MB

>>57525091
Actually microcenter also cuts $40 off the motherboard if you buy them together.

My microcenter is 13 mins away
>>
>>57525049
I have one ~30 minute walk away or about a 5-10 minute drive depending on traffic.

Shit's pretty cash, I got my 5820k from there around a year ago for like $290.
>>
>>57523345

So will Sky lake...

...and Broadwell and Haswell and maybe even Ivy Bridge.
>>
>>57525136
Your lowest price for a 6600k converted to Canadian dollars is actually more expensive than what I'm paying.

Technically I'm paying $226 USD while your lowest price on pcpartpicker is $235

However when you take into account how much money we make here in Canada it costs less for you.
>>
>>57525241
My grandparents will be putting another ~$50,000 into CAD this year I guess.

Every time CAD drops under ~0.75 to 1 USD they put some money up there, and every time it's rebounded back to ~0.85+ to 1 within a few years and they make a decent profit.
>>
>>57525261
CAD is related to oil prices.

I remember back a couple years ago it was hovering on par with USD for a solid while because oil prices were high. Then the prices lowered and here we are again. Thing is its not Trudeaus fault, he just hasn't done anything beneficial to the economy since Harper left.

>>57520108
Zen will be mildly disappointing and lag just far enough behind Intel to draw the occasional anti-Intel protest purchase.

Bought a 6600k from them. Even with $12 tax its still almost $50 cheaper than anywhere else.
>>
>>57529817
Just like the 480 :P

More expensive and weaker than 1060s.
>>
>>57520088
Literally just picked up a 6600k, Z170 board and 8 gig kit of DDR4 from Microcenter for like $250. They were selling 6700k's for less than a 6700 non k.

a'ight haven't played in like 2 years so mostly talking out of my ass
>>
>>57519788
I tried to reserve a cpu and mobo and the site advertises 18 minutes to clear it. That was around 10pm. Do they not send confirmations at night when they're closed because systems aren't automated or did I lose out because the mobo I wanted, because now it is out of stock according to their site. I live in southern california, to clarify.
