Would /g/ recommend rebuilding in Kaby Lake if I'm on Haswell?

I have a 4690k and was thinking about upgrading my rig to a 7700k, but I would obviously have to buy a new Mobo and RAM. Wondering if the performance upgrade is worth it. Most benchmarks online don't really show me much because I'm more interested in gaming improvements.
>>
lmfao, no

You're "upgrade" won't be that significant. If better multi-core performance is what you want then buy a used multi-xeon server blade.
>>
Nope. Check again next year maybe cannon lake will bring some gains or at least more cores.

You'd be better off getting a 4790K if your CPU isn't good enough in multithreaded workloads, it will get you very close to Kaby Lel. It's definitely not worth paying for a new mobo and RAM and you can probably get the 4790k cheaper than a 7700k too.

No.

In summary:
JACK
FUCKING
SHIT

Its fucking blatant how Anandtech is trying to hype up for this shit show of a product. They're talking about how it beating a processor released four fucking years ago is a major deal. It performs the exact same as Skylake, and Skylake is MARGINALLY faster than Broadwell, and Broadwell is actually somehow fucking slower than Haswell by a percentage point in IPC.

Four fuckin years and they have 5% IPC growth to show for it.

>>58461156
Who cares about ipc when you can have higher clocks with lower power consumption?
>>
>>58461156
Skylake does 4.6 average. 4.8 top bin.

Kaby does 5ghz effortlessly. That 400mhz difference alone is already several generation jumps ahead.

No. I wouldn't even recommend it if you were running Sandy Bridge. It think Nehalem would be the newest system I would recommend an upgrade.
>>
Fuck no. Intel performance is stagnant which is why they've had to resort to (((tricks))) like only allowing 4K on their Kaby Lake chips.

If you're on a Sandy Bridge or newer then just stay the course.
>>
No, the only worthwhile cpu upgrade from a 4690k right now would be broadwell-e, and that's only if you're fucking loaded

anyone else have the e31230v5 xeon? i got it with the oc motherboard and have only got it to 4ghz. anynoe else got it higher? whats your voltage etc?
