Is this the most exciting thing to happen to the CPU market since the i5-2500k? It's amazing that Intel fucked up the unlocked Core i3 so bad that a $65 Pentium with Hyper-threading is the budget king.

These posts will create price inflation
but actually the g4564 sounds really good
>exciting
No.

Almost. I still find it hilarious.

Pretty based CPU.
Will never forgive them for not putting out a 4th gen Pentium with VT-d support, though.
It loses out on about 10% IPC compared to Devil's Canyon but has what I want in a CPU.
The Pentium g3258 Anniversary edition was pretty good for it's time. It's nice to have a <$100 chip that I feel good about recommending to friends without having to explain overclocking.
G4560+1050Ti would make some great "e-sports" boxes for Overwatch and LoL.

I'm more excited for AMD to not fuck up this time around

That would be neat, but at least this is a thing that is already out. We don't even know what AMD pricing will look like.

I actually have a Pentium 4 630 which is still Bretty Gud today
3 GHz hyperthreaded.. only one core, and even with >muh netburst it seems to have enough power for regular shit like web browsing
It can even decode 720p Hi10 most of the time

Weren't those capable of 5Ghz on water?

Since when is it the i5-2500k?
Got the pentium g3258 aand been rocking the shit for 4 yrs now running practically every game @ full details n shit.

Because people are still using them in upper mid-tier rigs to this day. Oh wow, its 5% slower than Sky/Kabylake.
It's another G3258 I hope. That was a good processor until intel realised they'd fucked up and accidentally released a decent value product
its definitely the least boring kaby lake chip.
