Well at least you're blaming yourself as is proper.

>>59580148
You're supposed to overclock it you mongoloid

>>59580148
so i have an extra one of these. worth it to use it in a plex media server?

>>59580233
Is the G4560 a meme? Im planning to suggest it to a friend of mine for his first gaymen pc.

>>59580148

Pentiums are traps. They look good on paper and give a "easy upgrade path".

But as soon as you use one, you'll want to upgrade sooner rather than later and realized you should have just bought thay i5 you really wanted.

>>59580256

Why do you hate your friends?

Just tell him to get a 4 core R5.

>>59580243
That will only get you so (~ +35%) far. It was a good lowend chip anyway, since it was cheapo, but for games/MT tasks it is just out of its league.

>>59580279
Well, hes a poorfag that cant afford an i5 or R5.
Planning to suggest a G4569 + Rx 470 build.

>>59580303
Sounds like lack of impulse control to me.

If you can save up for a $600 cheap as fuck build, you can save up another $400 for a $1000 decent midrange build.

Even if it takes 2-3 more months, it's worth it in the long run.

>>59580303
G4560*

>>59580303

Then tell him to buy an Xbox or spend the extra 100.

>>59580256
>locked
meme

>>59580316
Considering that the G4560 costs only around $60 he can easily upgrade to an i5 in 2-3 months anyway.

>>59580335
yeah, better waste $60 instead of waiting 2 months and getting an i5.

Just get more cash and buy a nice processor.

If you can't afford one yet wait, settling for garbage is retarded.

>>59580335

Why bother throwing 60 dollars away on the Pentium in a couple months when he coukd save his money for the same period and get an i3 or R5?

>>59580346
He might not be poor. Bet that never crossed your mind

>>59580346
Actually it is

>>59580346
>>59580356
Its 2-3 months of not having a pc, but yeah I can see your point. I'll be telling him that, thanks guys.

>>59580368
>He might not be poor.
>>59580303
>Well, hes a poorfag that cant afford


alright then, glad we had this conversation.

>>59580303
I'd say that should do. He'll just have to use sane settings in games and not "ultra". RX 470 is a good choice, the pentium is really king of bang-for-buck in the lowend.

>>59580388

This is how you instill peoples hate for PC gaming.

>>59580148

What are you talking about?

I bought one and a GTX970 in 2015, and i was able to run Witcher 3 and GTA V at high-ultra settings.

I had to run it on a Z97 tho, and it was overclocked to fucktown and back at 4.71GHz with a Corsair H110i.

Without that overclock, it's impossible to run descently, but a 60$ cpu is still a 60$ cpu, you can't expect to run dual gpus at 1440p.

>>59580356
>an i3 or R5
i3 is nonsense for games ever since these Pentiums have HT. The only thing Core i3 offers now is AVX/AVX2 which games won't use and you are overpaying massively. Either Pentium, or jump straight to i5. Or Ryzen 5 in few weeks assuming sufficiently cheap motherboards are available. R5s will slaughter i5s when it comes to bang for buck, by the look of it.

>>59580419
Not him but I also think the G4560 is a fine Pentium for once as it virtually has 4 cores. You can see over YouTube plenty of people recording themselves with it and some 1050 or 470 playing all the recent games in a pretty fine way. Look at the BF1 videos notably.

Some people just can't afford more.
Of course I agree an i5 or an R5 would be miles better if said friend is serious about having a good PC.

>>59580419

EVERYTHING YOU BUY IS A MEME


STOP MEMES


HELP

>>59580148

why the fuck would you buy this in 2017?

it cant even run MGSV

and the new kabylake 4560 is faster and has HT, or since nobody has it in stock except the jews at BH and are charging 70 just get the 4600

>>59580466

>Implying if all you need is to play games a console for the same price or less isn't superior in every way

>>59580388
Yeah I told him that, though hes adamant on using his old 720p monitor to game anyway. Poor guy.

>>59580466
>virtually has 4 cores
Intel SMT in an ideal load gives a 23% performance improvement

Games are not an ideal load

>>59580531
Yeah have fun having to spend $50 whenever you want to play a game.

i have a g4400 for my poorfag build, but i only plan on indie gaming, how fucked am i?

>>59582330
doesn't have SMT lol

Coffee Lake faggot, i7's are moving to 6 core 12 thread, i5's to 4 core 8 thread, i3's to 4 core

>>59582613
Have they mentioned the prices? I haven't heard much, but what I did hear (aka not sure if it's true) is that i3 will take the i5s price point.
Like I said, Im not sure if true.

>>59580435

>be such a cheap fuck that you pay ONLY and ONLY 60 bucks for a CPU
>be such a retarded fuck that you get a 200 bucks mobo to OC that said pos CPU

You should have gotten an i5 and a cheap mobo instead, you mongoloid fuck

>>59580148
Would this be good for a media-center style living room computer, playing emulators and streaming videos and such?

>>59582613
source on the comic? reverse image search brings up nothing

>>59582749

If you want to do all of that cheaply, get an FX 6300

If you want to do all that at a moderate cost, get an i5 or you could get 1500 or something.

>It's okay you don't need more than 1 core
>It's okay you don't need more than 2 cores

>>59582920
Dude 1 core is enough for everything. Two is overkill. Single thread performance is the most important thing in the universe.

>>59582667
not a fuckin clue

I'm really gonna be interested in how these fucks will clock though. Intel 14nm starts drawing hilariously large amounts of power past 4ghz. A 6700K (4ghz all core) will draw 90w, while a 7700K (4.4ghz all core) will pull 135w. A 4.8ghz 7700K will pull, I'm not joking with this, in the region of 190 watts.

>>59580286
>only 35% improvement
you're joking right? I would kill for 35% better performance on my shitstation

>>59583028

Lol, 35% performance increase with $50 cooler and $200 mobo.

Just get an i5 or r5 for fucks sakes, useless moronic cunts.

i built my grandma a pc with a 3260 that i got for 30 bucks used. runs facebook and openoffice like a charm.

>>59583036
I'm not defending him in buying a fucking pentium, but 35% gains are quite good depending on base performance

Get a g4560 because it beats the fx 6300. On par with the 2500k and slightly beats the 8350 in certain games or wait for r3

Tell him to get the R5 1600 or the 1400 (I'd suggest the 1600) with at least 3200MHz ram (I suggest Micro-centers EVGA 3200 ram, worked out of the box on my ryzen system and is pretty cheap all things considered. Assuming there's no sales going on. And I was able to tighten the timings pretty well)

it's just madness to think that the pentium is better

Why didn't you just get an AMD chip for that price?

Intel will force you to give them your wallet by any means necessary, you can't cheap out on their chips.

>he doesnt use only a n-gage for gaming and shitposting

If you're on a budget either get a second hand i5 or an FX6300

Do not fall for the dual core meme.

Dual cores are literally obsolete in 2017.

They are the new "web browsing and office" CPUs.

>>59580263
pentiums cost like the third of an i5 so i i need to upgrade it after 2years i still have a lot of money to buy a decent new cpu

used xeon, 3.5-3.9ghz near an i7 3770 performance for around $100. Pop it on a $30-$50 H/Bxx board and go.

TF2 dota 2 and CSGO are not "everything" as thats designed to run on toasters

Why is everyone still spamming this Pentium or i3 meme, if you want a cheap build just buy a used pre built with a few years old i7, buy a new power supply and graphics card and upgrade the ram, just buy a case to if you don't like it.

>>59584071

Not at 60 fps though. Unless you only old or undemanding games.

>>59588288
Ain't bullshit senpai, was confirmed awhile back they're moving hexcores over to mainstream i7's. HEDT will have a 12 core SKU.
