Should I sell my i5 3570 and throw another $90-100 down on a locked i7? Ebay prices seem to be ~$70 for 3570 and $150-160 for the i7. Another 100mhz isnt much but that HT

just overclock the 3570k ... mine is running at 4.4ghz without any issues at all for over a year now.

the i5 k versions are actually i7s
>>
>locked i7

Might as well try to buy a used xeon or wait for rypoo 5. Could also try your luck with an engineering sample i7 from overseas. Keep in mind I also just hate locked CPUs with a passion.

It's not a K sku

Sandy/Ivy can go +4 turbo on P67 and up 1155 boards and +4 plus lock all cores to single core turbo on Z7X boards, giving you 4.1/4.3 or 4.3/4.3 turbo on a 3770. 3570 is running 4.0/4.2 now.

E3-1230 V2

>>59536364
Try to find an Xeon E3-1230v2 or above, they're i7's but with the integrated GPU disabled and ECC support. They were typically around $80 cheaper. ($230~). They work fine on the same chipset.

Ones ending with a 5, ie E3-1245v2 have the GPU enabled, which is pretty pointless.

E3-1220v2 and E3-1225v2 have no hyperthreading so it's just an i5


here's a comparison if you don't believe me

>>59536412
No they aren't, i7's are defined by higher bins and having SMT (Hyperthreading) enabled

thanks for the tip, would totally do it if I had a 7x mobo
>>59536775
its just a random pic
>>
>>59536961
they work fine with a 6x board mate, just update the BIOS
>>
>>59536971
Yes but no turbo+. I would be losing 15% or more in 1c/4c for better 8c. A 3770 will be the same or better in all areas.

>>59536364
Would OP pic work?

>but that HT
when will the HT meme end?

Seems to me like you could save a lot of money by just buying a 12V fan instead of hooking your PC up to the motherfucking air conditioner?
>>
>>59540009
You would need something to dehumidify the air from the AC and then it might stand a chance.

>>59540224
poor people aren't very smart
>>
>>59540224
doesn't work if you live in a melting wasteland, you actually need actively cooled air for that

>>59541088
most air conditioners already dehumidify the air, at least where I live
