Who here still using Sandy Bridge and doesn't fall for Ryzen

I'm still on a Core 2 Quad and thinking of falling for the Ryzen meme.

>>59073028
Depending what type of cpu got the Sandy Bridge years, you should at least go Ivy Bridge or at best Haswell

>>59073028
8c/16t Ryzen absolutely destroys anything from Sandy Bridge. Sorry, it's true.

I support amd in their quest to dethrone Intel. But as a 2500k/780 owner I'm not sure I need to upgrade for gaming.

More cores won't necessarily boost my fps, will it?

People are using i5:s for gaming. This is almost equal in single-core and still wrecks in multi-core.

The only reason I'd upgrade is for even better multi-core power, but I don't think I'd benefit enough from extra cores for Reaper, Sai, Photoshop, Illustrator and InDesign to warrant a costly upgrade.

Dude the fuck are you talking about, every intel socket is different, there's no way to upgrade past sandybridge if you have a sandybridge CPU

>>59073028
I am still on a 2500K, and very unlikely to upgrade until it breaks or becomes unusable.

That said, I definitely want to see Ryzen be successful, and bring about a more competitive AMD. Monopolies are horrendous for consumers. If you support Intel, you will want Ryzen to succeed too: Competition brings better improvement.

>>59076224

Ivy Bridge and Sandy Bridge use the same socket, dumbass.

>>59076461

You literally said Haswell.

2500k here, I can't see any reason to upgrade to a glued cpu.

>>59073028
I'm going to upgrade next month. I was tempted to preorder, but there's no reason to not wait for the benchmarks.

I'm on a i7 6700k, have a athlon x4000+ and in the mail obiously even I know i've been blown the fuck out, get over it and get real son your not going to be at the top all the time unless your some rich S.O.B.

claim down fan boy its like you never seen competition before .
Look if your going to go at it go make a vlog on youtube and cry like all the shills do
I honestly don't care about top of the line gear

But if this thread is just about balling your eyes out .
get lost.
Ughhh fan boys... when will they learn.

also Ryzen people have been waiting for fucking ages for their cpu's let them have some dignity and pride.

this 6700k is overkill for me in everything but when i was younger i knew what the average top end user wants and so i'm letting them party
and why not?

I'm still using a i7920. I've been waiting for this moment

>>59076910
Dude. Third party reviewers have already leaked that they've hit new world records in CineBench R15 with Ryzen overclocking.

When the embargo is lifted, it's only going to confirm everything we already know. Best price/performance/thermals across the board. Unlocked overclocking.

Only thing lacking right now are good motherboard compatibility lists and third-party HSF brackets.

>>59077107
maybe he doesn't do CineBench?

>>59073028
Sandy bridge, holy shit, might as well use a celeron 667mhz

i7-2640m laptop here, wish I did have a Kaby Lake machine at this point but the pricing on that stuff at this moment is just not worth it and the only aspects I care about are power efficiency more than anything else.

As for Ryzen, sorry, just not a fan of AMD. I have built AMD-based systems in the past and they worked fine for their intended design purposes, but I myself have never really used one as a daily runner, been an Intel fan and user since the 1970s and that's not going to change anytime soon.

I don't care if the pricing on Ryzen is competitive or that some of their processors may actually outperform Intel ones of the same/similar clock speed, I care about everything all together and not just one spec so that means Intel will remain my processor of choice for pretty much as long as I'll be using computers and Intel lasts (that's forever afaic).

My 2500k is still kicking, but it's now in my mother's computer. I decided to upgrade to Skylake for three reasons:

1. My mom needed a new computer anyway.
2. There's no guarantee that future processors will still support Windows 7.
3. I am now unemployed and have no idea if I will have the money to upgrade my system in another few years.

You guys think sandy is bad, I'm still running a phenom ii dual core that has survived 3 years at 1.6 volts. I was hoping that it would die when ryzen came out, but it still runs.

>>59073028

Still running an i5-2400 and no urge to upgrade at all. LineageOS rebuilds in 10 min.

2500k @ 4.1GHz here (because for some reason my BIOS can't do more than that good job MSI :---DDDD)

It's fine for everything I do except high bitrate H264 and it can't do HEVC

I can kind of compensate high bitrate H264 with GPU decoding but for HEVC you need a pretty fucking new GPU so I'm not gonna bother

I said to myself I'll only upgrade if anything in my setup seriously inhibits my workflow (right now it really does not, I just can't watch ebin 4k 60fps 10bit tech demos) or if something outright breaks.

I was under the impression my mobo would give up much sooner but it's already going almost 6 years and everything works (except OC'ing past 4.1GHz REEEEEE)

>>59073146
IPC of Ryzen is better than Sandy

>>59077703
>It's fine for everything I do except high bitrate H264 and it can't do HEVC
I think there might be something wrong with your computer, Even on integrated graphics my i5 can handle HEVC 1080p hi10.

Same only I need to upgrade because my motherboard is dying slowly.

I wouldn't touch AMD with a stick after they fucked me over twice on their GPUs.

>Just RMA it

I did but that's not the point. Those fucking weeks of annoyance I had to go through just so I can get a card that isn't fucked up on hardware level just so I can discover it's still bad on software level just ain't worth it.

>>59077823
>Or are you trying to run 4k or something?
Indeed I am

>>59077931
>Used hardware
They fully test everything they sell and give you a 24 month warranty. Which is 12 months more than you get when buying new.

>>59077914
Mah nigga!

I bought all my parts used, I really despise the ASRock board I'm using though, but it's still good enough. Newer generations honestly only give incremental speed upgrades.

The only worthwhile upgrade I can think of would be adding another GPU, but you can get a used 770 for less than $80 now.

>>59077955
Still I just checked CEX and the cheapest 6700k I've seen costs £280 but like I said I have no clue about their inner workings.

>>59077947
Well that'll do it.
40Mbps 1080p is using up like 50% of my CPU in MPC i can only imagine how bad it gets at 4k.

>>59077966
They must have put prices up recently, I bought mine about 5 weeks ago for £235.

They are really good though, I have bought loads of stuff from them and never had a problem with any of it. But they do give you a 24 month warranty on everything and will replace or repair or refund you on anything that breaks.

>>59077931
>I wouldn't touch AMD with a stick after they fucked me over twice on their GPUs.
Even then, you could wait for Intel's response before jumping on old hardware, kinda retarded in my opinion.

>>59078001
Meh, it was a 500 quid upgrade which considering my earnings is slightly less than my weekly paycheck. I will manage and I sure do fucking love this cpu.

>>59077959
Yeah 770s are cheap but my case fans cant handle the heat from my one GPU at the moment. My HDD got up to 47 degrees the last time i played a game and that's not healthy.
Plus if i can sell mine for around $80 the actual amount of money i'd have to spend to get a new card is lower. brings a 3GB 1060 down to a little over $100 and a 6GB to ~$150
Not bad for a jump in performance of almost 2x

>>59073028
I have the 2600K, its been only within this year (anno domini 2017) that from time to time in some games (planetside 2) i oc to 4ghz.

>>59073028

AMD made a better product than the last one they had, Ryzen is a good product.

On the other hand, Intel have been churning out new chipsets and cpu with meme upgrades and pointless performance. They made it look like it was relevant when it was just a marketing ploy.

I don't want to buy Intel again, i'm tired of this bullshit. They make good stuff but they treat consumers like retards. OC on K cpu only ? need a topline mmobo to OC ? that's not the point of OC you corporrate loosers.

>>59080965
Intel is the reason we've seen process size drop. They don't want NEETs OCing their product and giving them a bad name for everything outside of gaymen, like AMD.

IT/g/: YOU ARE ALL FALLING FOR THE RYZEN MEME.

Release day will bring "fell for the meme" posts, Ryzen underperformance and failures. The Ryzen hype will shill into itself, and Intel will remain on top because we were given this level of performance in 2012 and it's only gotten better from there. Screencap this post.

Bought recently 3470 used on Amazon, and I'm getting a GTX1050 because my current GPU is bottlenecking too much.

I don't plan to make another upgrade for several years, and for sure Jewtel will not get my money, at least not directly.

Ryzen seems interesting but I have literally no reason to change unless my current machine explodes or something.

I'm on a Lynnfield i5 and I'm probably going to get a Ryzen chip. Looking at the 1700X right now

>>59086788
The problem is more the motherboard I think. I can only run at 20x or 22-23x. I can't forcefully pick 22x without it then turboing to 23x on a single core, and I can't get 4.6 GHz stable.

6 years on 2600k 4.5 @ 1.27V (up slightly from the original 1.23V due to degradation, but still technically undervolted). i built this system originally to play fucking witcher 2 but winded up using it to play witcher 3 as well. currently running a GTX970 but will likely try my luck at one more GPU upgrade at somepoint before run this system into the ground. This will also probably be my last Windows system (I already do all my primary stuff using OSX on other machines). Fuck Jews.

I'm still using a Core2Duo E6550, which has been my main/only computer since the end of 2007.

I'm starting to get really excited for Ryzen. I might finally upgrade to a new computer.

Am a 2500K user and I will fall for the Ryzen meme if I happen to stop being a NEET in a close future.
But I will wait quiet some time before switching to Ryzen, I want to see the motherboards announced by everyone but I don't want some shitty RGB led everywhere and shitty plastic cover on the rads with a €300 pricetag motherboard.

Aside from gaming and some high end applications I don't see much point in most normies investing in powerful home hardware. Most computing normies do Most their computing in the cloud (paying bills, Spotify, other apps) and this will increase over the next few years. Intels potential home market must be shrinking daily.

I went from a i5 mobile first gen (2 core, 4 threads) to a skylake celeron g3900 (2 cores), felt amazing.

I guess i'll go for a 4 core skylake or kaby lake if i can find one used for a good price.

I don't do games and have a compiler farm for the work, so basically firefox, git and vim is my usecase.

>>59073344
You are wrong.
I have a 3570K in my closet that I don't use anymore. I don't use it because my current 4790K has a higher IPC, higher clock speed, hyper threading, and lower temperatures. It is better in every measure than the 3570K, so you are wrong.

>build PC with i3-2100 in 2011
>eventually pick up i5-3570k for dirt cheap used from eBay

Highly considering dropping a bunch of cash on a fully up to date PC but this works pretty good for now.

>>59093957

Yeah I'm thinking about it. Have a cart that I'm sitting on on Newegg at about $1200. I'm still saving my cash so I'm waiting for the right time to get the most out of the money. The only thing I'm gonna still use out of my current old setup is probably the 1.5tb hard drive.

What kind of improvement will Ryzen offer over a 2600k OC anyway?

Well, that's certainly true, but Ryzen has nothing to with it.

The reason nobody needs to upgrade from Sandy Bridge yet is because the CPU industry's performance improvements have come to a screeching halt.

Every year since Sandy Bridge (2011) has been a bitter disappointment for performance gains.

Normally, I don't bother upgrading my CPU until I can get one that's twice as fast on single-threaded workloads for the same money. As of today, the very fastest CPU for single-threaded performance (7700K) beats my CPU (3770K) by 24%. That's 5 fucking years for a 24% improvement. At this pace, I'm looking at waiting until about 2027 for a processor that's twice as fast as mine single-threaded.

I still have an i7 Sandy Bridge on a laptop and it works admirably. I literally use it as the central processing with a 24'' and a mechanical keyboard in the office for years. For a Desktop I bought a 4790K and I never saw it being worse enough than anything that exists on single thread on 2-3 threads I usually need to even consider replacing.

Gonna replace the screen since it's got some dead pixels now, and might refresh the thermal paste on the CPU while I'm at it.
