So what's your excuse for not having the best CPU available for the amount of money you pay?
>>
I'm not a gamer manchild.
>>
>>59647838
Bought a i5-6600k last november and don'y feel like upgrading.
>>
but i do have one
>>
I have no money
>>
>>59647851
So what do you do? Compile Linux all day? Milking that Ryzen, I see.

>>59647879
Smart lad.
>>
>>59647838
but the best CPU for the money I pay is a lot better than that
>>
But that's not an ARM chip...
>>
>>59647838
I have a 2500k and I'd rather upgrade to Ryzen. I'm just waiting for motherboards to mature and RAM compatibility to be sorted out.
>>
>>59647838
I wouldn't say best cpu avail unless you get it on sale for like $200 (thanks jet),

Even then you'd need to spend 50 bucks buying a delid kit and conductonaut to get that 5.2ghz.
>>
>>59647838
I'm going to get a ryzen 1600.
>>
1600x hasn't launched yet.
>>
>>59647838
I'm not poor and do more than play gaymes designed for children.

But I kinda do.

Personally I play games designed for adults.

>>59649294
What, like chess? Why do you need a CPU for that?

Looks exactly like paid shilling. Your words are the same ones that I would expect from anyone trying to sell something. Paid shill detected. Get the fuck out, nigger faggot. Shove your brand loyalty bullshit straight up your ass. I'll buy whatever has the best cost to performance, and it's not that piece of shit you're pushing, (((Shmuley)).
>>
>>59647865
same, its funny since the 7600 is barely an upgrade.
>>
>>59647838
Because the Ryzen 1600 isn't out yet.
>>
>>59647838
But anon, I already have used x5460
>>
i have a 6700, where do I stand?
>>
>>59647838
Intel Botnet Engine

audio processing work is pretty lightweight and if i run into processing limits i can render/bounce/freeze the track so its no longer needing to processed.

I actually just upgraded from an FX6300. It's fucking fantastic, but I can't help but feel like my GPU is bottlenecking or something in games.

Also people keep telling me to delid, but I haven't had heat issues or anything and it's going stable at 4.81 or so and I have a pretty mediocre air cooler.
>>
Because I make enough money that paying extra for the i7 isn't a problem for me, i5 is still a solid processor I just can afford better performance.
>>
>>59647838
Because I fell for the 4690k meme

>>
>>59650274
Why? The perf increase between the 67 and 77 is minimal...
>>
>>59647851
Pretty much this
>>
>>59648546
I have a 2500k too, I want to upgrade but the 2500k is still going strong..
>>
>>59650274
like seriously, a better GPU would be WAY fucking better than 67k to 77k. why did you even get a 1050, and not even a Ti?
>>
>>59648546

April is supposed to be AMDs big memory update that lets you overclock it to 3200+.

Some boards already do, but it's basically patchwork with Intel XMP profiles.

Get pentium g4560. Save you a lot of money while single thread performance is superb.
Inb4 >two cores in 2k17
You don't need more than two cores, shills.
>>
>>59652513
I'm going for a 16 thread CPU and you're suggesting I go for a 4 thread one? Fuck no.
>>
>>59652513
Nice try corelet

>>59647838
My x5650 still goes alright.

I would like to upgrade from sandy bridge, but whenever I actually look at the value proposition, it's absolutely not worth it.
>>
>>59652513

only true answer if any of your fields includes budget or price-performance ratio
>>
>>59647838

My i5-2400 is still plenty for casual gaming and adequate for building ROMs for my phone.
>>
>>59652531

You're urge to buy a 16 thread CPU is completely unfounded. Two cores is plenty.

But sure, buy the meme-core and contribute to the economy, I guess.

if its a 7600 and you made a typo its overpriced and still a housefire

I use my computer for daily tasks which do not include gaming and FX8350 performs fine

Tell me even one valid reason to buy this jewish product in my case, and no, I do not compile Linux all day everyday, I only compile it when my distro releases a newer version as I need to enable AMDGPU support for older cards
>>
Bought a 7700k for $299. Easily worth the it for me for the extra performance. Also, I want muh threads for virtualization.

Not worth the it for me.

nice joke
>>
>>59655719
sell it and the mobo at a profit and get a 1700

you get a better/more effiecent cpu for virtualization
>>
>>59655755
Nah it's just bad IOMMU groups on some boards. Asrock has fine groups.
>>
>>59655780
I thought a "kys" was coming. Thanks, anon.
Honestly though, this is my wife's rig which she will be gaming on and I will be doing some light virtualization. I was thinking of a truly virtualization-dedicated Ryzen build in the future for a media server, a gaming VM and some lab stuff.
>>
>>59652908
CPU are hitting the performance wall on the manufacturing method they use these days. We saw the major increase on 1993-2013. We'll have to switch materials to have new performance gains in the 100-1000% order

Or, make things more parallel, so we can increase the cores. This is what has been happening, by the way.
>>
>>59655809
Got any source for that? I know there has been some success with ACS patching, but proper groups out of the box would be nice. Biggest thing (apart from bad mobo availability) keeping me from buying a 1700 at the moment.
>>
>>59655878
Yeah Taichi with ACS is fine mang. I've got a 7950 and 4870 for the meme.
>>
>>59647838
I'm poor so I settled with the g4560 until I can upgrade to an i5.
>>
>>59656085
good goyim
>>
What happened to the "anything that gets beat by a 7700k @ 5GHz is shit" meme?
>>
Give me a good reason to upgrade sent 3rd gen to a 6/7th gen. Seems Intel has not made any progress whatsoever for four years
>>
>>59655840
What new materials? There isn't any that is comparable by a long stretch. The only better performance would be better lithographic methods but we're very close to the point where we reach the minimal possible size

Also not coarz hasn't been a thing anymore. 2c4t has been standard since like 2013

It works like this. If 7700K beats AMD, it's total dogshit not worthy of scraping off your shoes. If 7700K beats Intel, it's just a better deal.

congratulations, you can now use anything with sufficient ram that was made in the last 10 years.

You can now fuck off to the land of "doesnt need hardware upgrades cause all I do is browse the web".
