Maybe only for the common office, like Word and Excel. For serious power users of gaming and the desktop get a 4core/8thread CPU. They are simply a sweet spot especially when Intel bins them well to overclock well.

4core for more poorfagging mode.

Also this has very low Cache.

You can get a six core AMD chip for the same price.
>>
>>59247518
AMD are idiots for not promoting first the 4core/8thread chips. They are simply a sweet spot in most applications people need. They could bin them well to overclock well and beat the benchmarks most people care about and hence get free publicity that way for the server chips as well.

Alternatively, they are failures because they don't have their own Foundries, maybe they can't make Samsung or whoever builds them bin at all.
>>
>>59247518
Which six core AMD cpu costs 60$?
>>
>>59247481
It's not the best but price/perf ratio is pretty amazing. I mean, it's i3 for 60$.
>>
>>59247516
>Also this has very low Cache.
Most people forget that. A lot of "mor cores" apologists don't get that in many cases their benchmark didn't win because it had moar cores. It won because those tiny chips have also like 2MB cache and a bigger chip has at least 8.
In some extreme cases of the Extreme Editions they have 20 which makes them "better" than even the 8M cache chips without much multithreading.

It's only a 1MB reduction from an i3 and only a 512K reduction per core from any of the more expensive options. It still performs almost identically to a similarly-clocked i3 (namely the 6100).

>>59247587
Complete bullshit. For a start, the entire premise that HEDT chips generally outperform mainstream i7s in poorly-threaded workloads is nonsense. They don't. And the reason the HEDT chips rape them in heavily-threaded workloads is entirely because of the more cores meme. You also have to consider that L3 cache is shared between all cores, so it makes sense for a dual core to have half that of a quad core, and a quad core to have half that of an octo core. You're not gaining or losing anything in relative terms.
>>
>>59247670
There are some cases that you run out of Cache to use, but it's obvious there are cases you could use more but with fewer cores, e.g. it's obvious that many games that can only use max 3-4 cores only lost to a HEDT chip on the exact same clocks of the exact same architecture mainly because of the cache because on ~3 core use you start eating a lot into those usual "2MB per core" (and this little chip only has 1.5M per core so that's gonna happen even MORE with it).

It's generally an on-a-case scenario and 1.5MB per core of this chip can't seriously be considered "more than enough in all cases per core".

I would personally probably go with at least an i3-6100 if nothing else to make better use of the on board graphics if desired.

I wouldn't buy memelake or baby lake garbage. Buy a used Xeon or i7 (haswell/dc). If you need gaymin then install win7. If you're a patrician install something like Manjaro and setup GPU passtrhough with a win7 vm.

If you're a proud, upstanding American, and not a Muslim, you should buy CPUs from Intel, a company founded in America, that embodies the American dream.

The snapdragon 835 is the best CPU on the market.

>>59248963
It doesn't bottleneck 99% of games at 1080p 60fps. Which is its intended market. Pair it with an rx470 and you're golden.
>>
>>59247481
maybe if you only want to play shit like csgo and dota, it's perfect. but you will need to turn down settings for more demanding games.

>Source: My ass

There are only a handful of AAA gaymes that it can't run at 1080p/60fps with a decent graphics card, and they're exactly the ones you'd expect (like Total Warhammer).

>>59250160
Yeah, comfortably.

>>59250228
Not enough to justify the price. It's only a 200MHz boost, which is fuck all for quite a bit more money.

In 99.9% of games, yes. There are a handful of outliers like Watch Dogs 2 which demand an i7.
