where are the kneesocks?

Why the fuck have DDR4 prices skyrocketed? I don't see any news about a factory burning down or anything. The most relevant theory I found was that smartphones are starting to use DDR4 so prices are going up from the demand. Was it like this when smartphones started to use DDR3?

>>59667720
Seems mostly fine. RAM is priced a bit high though.

>>59667720
Nice heatsink choice. If it ain't broke don't fix it.

>>59667720
Come on man, Ryzen 5 is waiting around the corner. It is literally less than two weeks away from coming out. April 11th dude.

Even if you just want 4 cores, the 4c8t R5 1500x only costs $190. You already have relatively fast ram which will boost Ryzen's fps further.

It even comes with a Wraith Spire which is capable of getting the 8c16t R7 1700 to 3.9 Ghz.

You don't even need a high-end board to get a nice overclock on air. That 3.9 Ghz overclock I mentioned was done on a mid-range B350 board of all things, which only costed $110. It's the Gigabyte Gaming 3 if you're wondering.

You could have saved $113 and put that towards a better graphics card like a GTX 1070. Or you could've just pocketed that extra cash.

- - -

At the very least, there will likely be more i5 sales down the road after the Ryzen 5 release.

>>59667854
RAM has gone up a bit

>>59667970
And to add to this, that $113 could have been used for an SSD.

like 90% chance that that mobo will not come pre-loaded with the BIOS to support the 7xxx series i5. better have an older cpu or return it and get something else

No, you have no fucking clue what you're doing.
Get a 7700-nonk. It's a bit lower clocked, but its 8 threads at 3.6-4.2ghz is better than a 7600k at 4.9Ghz on average without costing you lots of on electricity. It's locked, but you weren't even going to overclock it anyway.
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/Cy9yRG

Compare that to people listing $1450 for a fucking 7600k with a 1080. $100 cheaper, way better memory, better SSD, better everything.

>I want like that above, but I think moar coars will pay off better with future games, overclockable, and the extra upgradability that comes with AM4 socket support
Same thing, but swap out the 7700 for a 1600 or 1600X that are coming April 11th and a B350 motherboard. If 1600X, add a cooler.
Should be ~$50 cheaper. Better in some games, worse in others. Much better multitask.

>I want the absolute cheapest that's still good, and has a good upgrade path to upgrade incrementally later.

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/mTN2f8

>I want the cheapest that handles 1440p 60fps minimum well, or that will continue to do 60fps minimum in most games and more current games than the G4560 does
Take the G4560 system and replace the CPU with a 1400 or 1500X that are coming April 11th and a B350 motherboard.
Replace GPU with an R9 Fury ($235) /1070 ($310-$370).

>i'm poor as fuck, but instead of getting an extra job I want to play video games all day
>$300
Refurbished A12-9800 non-pro for <$350. That'll play most games at 40-60fps+ at 1080p, medium-high settings in 95% of games.

>>59668142
Yes unless the Motherboard manufacturer uodates the bios by itself - which is very unlikeley. You need to update the bios while a Skylake CPU is inserted or it will not detect your Kabylake.
New Chipset it z270 but better hust forget the jewtel meme and just cancel your order and wait for ryzen r5.

Don't be an idiot.

>>59668991
Who said it's bad?

It makes more sense to get a G4560 than ANY i3 or i5.

With an i5-7600k you pay 3-4 times more for the mobo+cpu+cooler just to get 35-50% higher performance. That's retarded.

If you pay 4 times more, you should at least go from 60fps to 120fps, if not 144.
But no, you go from 55-70fps to maybe 70-95fps for most games, assuming you're not GPU bottlenecked.

>>59669087
>It makes more sense to get a G4560 than ANY i3 or i5.

None of those make sense.

The entire Intel lineup from the pentium to the i5s are completely and utterly obsolete thanks to R5 and R3.

You can meme all you want but that is objective fact.

>>59669106
G4560 makes perfect sense on the budget end. wtf are you talking about.

It's a $60 CPU. Just needs a $60 or cheaper motherboard.
That's $120.

To get a 7600k and 4.8Ghz overclock you're talking $240+$140+$100 for cpu+mobo+cooler for something that's, in the best case, only about 50% faster than the $120 G4560.

60fps is fine for most people, and it's not worth paying 4x more for only 90. FO4 is an unoptimized piece of shit of an edge case to lock up like that on it.

If you're going to pay more than $120 for cpu+mobo+cooler, it only makes sense to get R5 instead.

Sure the 1400 is about 50% better as well, and is like double the cost of a G4560 build instead of 4x like a 7600k.
But that still only makes sense if someone can actually spend another $120.

You turn a $575 build like
>https://pcpartpicker.com/list/n6C9Ps
into a $695 one by going up from a G4560 to a R5 1400.
Is it worth it? Sure. But not everyone can magically find $120 more when their budget was <$600.

Granted, the difference is less when you take advantage of various sales.

>>59667811

The minimums in those games would suffer.

>>59669364
>Better single core is a meme
you clearly never touched dwarf fortress then, it can put even a OCed 7700k to its knees given the circumstances

>>59669535
Its not multithreaded.

So it won't matter if you're running trillion core CPU if its low clock.

>>59669559
that's the point, single core performance is actually very necessary for dwarf fortress, and the best one possible right now is an overclocked 7700k, and yes, those 10% can make a difference in DF

>>59669265
Codebase started out way before multicores got popular.
And the game is all insanely cross-linked global state, so you probably can't parallelize it well.

>>59669576
Single core difference between Skylake/Kaby and Ryzen is ~10%.

So again, it won't matter. It would be matter of 30 fps and 33 fps.

Can't tell if shill, or just stupid.

If the i7-6850k cost $250 instead of $600 and motherboards cost $90 instead of $200+, but the 7600k still cost $250, I wonder how you'd justify that.
Intel can do no wrong, right? Clearly that 10% better single threaded performance is just soooo worth it instead of having 3 times as many threads, more cache, more efficiency, better average performance across all games and applications, etc.

If that single threaded performance is the most important thing, than why is the 7600k, in your "mind", better than the 7350k? They have identical single threaded performance.

>>59669872
Everything is better than the i5. The i5 is pointless.
Ryzen 5 is better as a direct comparison in the price bracket.
G4560 is better for destitute poor budget gaming.

There has been no point in buying an i3 or i5 for the past 2 years other than someone just being retarded and mislead by /v/ or something. There's 0 justification for anyone to have bought that garbage.

reconsider whether paying this much money just to play gaymes with slightly better graphics is really worth it

I've been away from my desktop for a while, but now got a room where I can have it- basically gaming is the most stressful shit I do with it, will it still manage relatively recent games ok?

i5-3570k @ 4.2GHz
8gb DDR3 (can't remember speed, some Corsair mid range stuff)
SLI Gtx 670s
A few SSDs and an HDD

>>59669908
>SLI GTX670s
That's like 10% as good as a $150 RX480. I would be surprised if you even get 3fps in Wildlands maxed out.
Or "3Hz".

Why would you even SLI 670s to begin with?

Your CPU is okay, though, for 60fps at least. Now days you really want 8 threads. Either upgrade to a 3770k, or Ryzen.

>>59669931

I bought one new soon after they were released, then another on the cheap (as in really cheap) from a friend a few years ago. If I wanted to play shit like GTA 5, Stalker, Cities Skylines, BF1 etc at decent settings they wouldn't be enough? Upgrading the lot would be quite a bit, Ryzen, motherboard, RAM, 480 would cost quite a bit (UK here, tech prices are just going up and up)

>>59669898
I'm talking about raw single threaded performance, not taking into account price or anything else, and in raw single threaded performance the pentium is worse than the 7600k, I'm not claiming anything else besides that

>>59669984
because it's the most meme cooler out there, even if it's not that good just because it's cheap

>>59669956
Uhhh I doubt they're enough.

Not all games support SLI.
You might be able to play them on low with downscaling.

You don't need a new motherboard for a new GPU. wtf.

I have a 7970 which is like.. still 2-3 as good as when your 670 SLI works, and 3-4 times as good as it doesn't. I still have to play low on some games that aren't optimized well.

You'll also need to figure out which Nvidia drivers are optimal because they started gimping those old cards to force you to upgrade.
You probably need a driver version from around like 2013-2015. Answer might be on some forum.

>>59669960
>I'm talking about raw single threaded performance
So am I, fagass. The i3-7350k isn't "the pentium". It's the exact same as the 7600k but with HT and half the cores. Its single threaded performance, for the 3rd time, is the same. So obviously it's better than a 7600k for dwarf fortress since it's $90 cheaper and exactly the same.

If all you're talking about is raw single threaded performance, than arguing for anything but the i3-7350k makes you a moron.

>>59670001

The mobo and RAM etc was cos you were implying that my CPU might not be enough. If it is, I'll try and sell the cards and get a 480 8gb as that should be plenty for the moment.

I know it isn't the pentium, I'm talking about that fag up there saying that the G4560 is good enough for dwarf fortress when it isn't. I know that the 7350k has the best single threaded performance of all processors, I'm not saying that is doesn't

>>59670022
I gave two options.

One was that I suggested you replace the 3570k with a 3770k.
Does that not work on the same motherboard? I'm pretty sure it does.

>>59670042

Yeah, 3770k does. Tbh I'll get a 480 and hold off on the CPU if my current one can hack it atm, then some point down the line go for a 3770k perhaps. A 3770k is the same price as a 480 8gb, and I feel like I'd notice one a lot more than the other

>>59670060
>A 3770k is the same price as a 480 8gb
l m a o. That's hilarious. I assumed it'd be like 100bux.
The RX480 8GB is the biggest value upgrade you can do, then.

In that case, don't bother ever getting it. It's like a 25% cpu upgrade on average. HT doesn't give quite as much benefit with DDR3 than DDR4, I don't think.

Just save up for Ryzen later. Your CPU will still be good for 60fps in most games, just not without stuttering in some.

>>59670088

Yeah, welcome to post-Brexit UK. An 8gb 480 is around 180 bongs, and intel 3770k's on ebay go for roughly the same, given they're not really available from retailers so much.

>>59670110
Ah. Here you can get an 8GB RX480, if you look for the sales and go through some small hoops, for about $150.

180bong doesn't sound super terrible for an RX480, though. That's still less than you pay for a 1060 here and it's as good on average, and better at 1440p.

>>59669908

Because it destroys the narrative that Intel is a better buy when you have to go out and buy a worthwhile cooler :^)

Also misinformation. I get the feeling CM went out and Astroturfed until people were recommending the 212 like crazy

>>59670250
Are you kidding me? OP's CPU, Motherboard, GPU & RAM combo are really bad.

>>59670261
>600mhz overclock on 90+W tdp cpu
yes, you need a really good cooling solution
>600mhz overclock on 65W tdp cpu
you don't need a super high end cooling solution

>>59670301
Literally every single part.

>>59669999
What's a better cooler?

>>59669048
8300 is surprising considering the game and bottleneck it presents to the 480.

>>59669040
Its already out for cheaper

just google "R5 1600" and go to the shopping tab

Hell, even the 1400 is available for sale already

>>59667720

Son you fucked up good, you are the perfect goyim

>>59670518

seriously how can I make money swindling fools like OP out of their money.

You think there's shit that there's no way anyone would buy, but people like OP do. It seems like the ideal way to operate a business.

>>59670487
I already posted an image>>59670243
but the best Air cooler is probably the NH-D15

>>59670301
I just know that having evaluated ryzen it does not meet my needs as well as kaby lake does, so it wouldn't be a sound purchase for me even with better cost efficacy. Maybe OP has done the same. I'm not familiar with US RAM pricing, maybe that could have been cheaper.

As for the GPU, it's just the usual "Slower NV hardware with better drivers vs faster AMD hardware with worse drivers" argument. My old GPU was an HD5770 and I had so many problems with it that I went with a 960 a couple years ago even though the AMD alternatives were cheaper and faster. No regrets, it's worked flawlessly.

>>59670591
There is no need that the 7600k meets better than another CPU except
>I'm have no clue what I'm doing, but other morons seem to buy this CPU for no reason a lot so I better buy it too
or
>xDDD 7600k is the exact same as the 7700k but the 7350k is not!!! ommmggg I know what i'm talking about THEY'RE THE SAME but THOSE OTHER TWO AREN'T

Name 6 benefits of buying amd over irntel/nvidia that doesn't include cheaper.

shoulda got a 2500k

>>59667720
An entire paycheck? Do you get paid every 3 days?

>>59670737
-better SMT
-better performance/watt
-ECC memory support
-Higher TFLOPs IPC
-Can still do complex x86 instructions on all 4 instruction decoders per clock cycle, compared to 1 complex + 3 simple for Intel CPUs.
-45% higher framerate over the 7700k in single threaded software emulated OpenGL :^)

I could go on, but that's 6 without even having to think about it, you ignorant shitter.

Fuck. I paid 650€ for an i7 6850K last August.

>>59667720
For the price of that you could have gotten two Nintendo Switches and still enough left over for a couple of games

>>59671337
Can't blame you. You only had 4 years of warning that Zen was coming.

What games that can't be played on Cemu in 4k instead of 900p?

>>59670060
As long as you're not playing something that is strongly biased towards one or two threads, a 480 will do you nicely. My gtr ass rapes my 4.3ghz e5-1650 on titles like blade and souls if I'm not using a custom anti aliasing profile to slow down my gpu. Even at 90fps I'll sit with 1 core at 100% and another at 70% utilization.

>>59667720
I'd make a few changes.

I would wait for Ryzen. Even if you don't get AMD, there's a good chance Intel drops their prices.

I'd also get a Cryorig H7 or Scythe Kotetsu over the Hyper 212 Evo. Better performance and less noise. The Kotetsu is very quiet and performs like an NH-U14S.

I'd also get the MSI 1060, they have the best coolers and run dead silent.

>>59667720
You are probably that idiot from a couple days ago. Build is terrible.

>>59671792
You're also getting Z170 motherboard, get a Z270

BOTW, portability, the list goes on..

>>59671866
Except you can play BOTW at 4k on Cemu, but on the Switch it's 720-900p.

sitting at your desk at a silky smooth 15fps, what's not to like am I right?

>>59672229

Even if that were true, that's still better than the Switch gets in BOTW sometimes, which just makes this more hilarious.

Lmao threadlet

>>59672276
>that's still better than the Switch gets in BOTW sometimes

They patched it yesterday, though ofc areas where Switch gets hitches just perform even worse on CEMU so, you know.

I guess the gameplay doesn't really matter as long as the resolution is large enough, huh?

lol I remember when I shunned anyone who wanted an i5/i3 on /g/ 6 months ago, I would get called a mongoloid and a shill.

6 months later, everyone is recommending an i7.

I've been too busy with school, the fuck changed?

>>59672409
It became the only thing that could possibly beat AMD

Intel shills in fullforce

>>59667720
That build at this time. You fucked up royally,

>>59672409
I stopped recommending i5s with the 5000 series.

By the time Haswell came out, the trend was becoming that games really were starting to utilize hyperthreading and in some cases got an almost 50% increase in minimum framerates from it.

Anyone who was recommending skylake or kabylake i5s was a piece of shit.
And as for i3s, after the G4560 came out, they're only good for emulators and dwarf fortress and otherwise a bad value as well.

But the 7700k is still worth recommendating because it is still the best gaming preformance on average.
Imo, though, not worth how much more it costs over a 1500X or 1600X. But if someone just wants the absolute best (on average. 1700 or 1800X obviously beats it on a few games) and will spend $200-$300 extra for it? Then it's a fair recommendation.
Actually, even then I'm not sure. Ryzen has 1ms lower input latency from its USB ports than the 7700k has. Isn't that the appeal of higher framerates, the 7700k, isn't it for competitive people? Isn't 1ms lower input latency better than 0.33ms faster frame draws, for them? Well, regardless, maybe someone just wants the absolute highest FPS on average for current games/versions.

But for someone that wants value? 95% of people? You have to recommend AMD for the AM4 socket alone. But intel shills will still recommend the 7700k for any person and even the unjustifiable 7600k.

>>59672555
Yeah, this is going to be like when I got my Thunderbird back in 2001. Gaming online, and it was an almost daily occurrence of meeting people asking my FPS and regretting that they got a Pentium 4.

i5s were always bad, at least since Broadwell and Skylake. i5-6500, i5-6600k, whatever.

The past few years, always better to just spend the same as the 6600k, or $50 more than a 6500, to just get a 6700 non-k instead.
The hyperthreading outperforms overclocking, simple as that, and the performance/$ is way better on top of absolute performance being better.

/g/ is just full of morons. There's maybe like 5-10 informed people per day that visit this subreddit, too be generous.

>>59673175

I run multiple emulators botting games and scrapping multiple instagram profiles and downloading pictures and watch tv series with mpv

what cpu do I get so that I can run all of those concurrently while playing overwatch without any lag or drop in performance?

currently rocking a fx6300 and I play OW on low and planning to do so

>>59667793
Not him, but after expenses (rent, food, jav, thinkpads) my paychecks are about 800 as well.

You could have bought an RX 480 with better drivers and more VRAM for ≈$50 less.
Also, why a Skylake motherboard with Kaby Lake?
Seems fine otherwise.
