I fell for the IdeaPad meme and ended up with an Ivy Bridge housefire. A real meme-within-a-meme.

I'm on broadwell and before that i was on Athlon64 X2 from 2007

Once you use such deprecated hardware, you realize that the difference between sandy/ivy/broadwell isn't actually big enough to make a difference at all.

The RAM I found laying around in my basement, and the CPU runs pretty cold with okay-ish performance. The Seagate has over 47,000 POH with no problems.

You fags are insufferable.
If you do anything other than gaming, a 6+ CPU will do it better. If it's light shit, then even a fucking pentium will do. Since you faggots are probably talking about gaymes, quad cores are nearing their limits and you can see that shit even on the monsters like the 7700k having almost no headroom left while 6+ core parts have plenty. SB was amazing, but your delusion of not upgrading anytime soon needs to be checked.

you dipshit nigger get a Z mobo before shit starts to get expensive

My PC is a lost Haswell cause (at least just coffee-warmer instead of horsefire class, also not an upgrade but initial build), but both of my Thinkpads are based on Sandy Bridge.
I have no plans on upgrading in that regard either after I realized how comfy the pre-chicklet keyboards were. If I ever have the need for raw computing power, I'll build a bare i7 Kaby Lake bonfire.

Sandy Bridge is still a good and fine CPU but it is dated and platform it drives on much more dated and this will grow and more apparent as time passes on.

Sandy Bridge wasn't really that much faster than Bloomfield either. It was much more energy efficient and overclocked like a dream.

Haswell already surpassed it in raw performance and power efficiency. Skylake utterly destroys it (that DDR4).

It is pretty much the closest thing since Core/P35 and Pentium-II 450/440BX in terms of platform longevity.

>>60068828

Sandy Bridge is also a bloody firehouse when you go beyond far 4.5Ghz. It is less pronouced because of older expoxy IHS bond instead of cheapo TIMs on post-Sandy Bridge chips (Not workstation/server-tier stuff though)

>>60071568
>Sandy Bridge wasn't really that much faster than Bloomfield either
Bullshit. It was a 20% or so IPC increase in one go, compared to the 20% that Intel have managed in the six years since.

>Skylake utterly destroys it
More bullshit. It's 20% faster at best in all but a select few scenarios. As for DDR4, you can easily run 2133MHz DDR3 with Sandy Bridge. Very few applications even benefit from extra memory bandwidth. In before fallout4benchmarks.png.

Running my 2600K at 4.7/1.375 and temperatures are in the mid-50s during gay men and just under 70 at full non-AVX load with a single tower air cooler. For comparison, the 7700K I have at 4.8/1.35 hits the mid-70s in gay men and the high 80s under full non-AVX load with the same cooler.

Checking in with a 2700k, but please stop this pointless circlejerk. One way or another, kaby lake is better in every way, and owning a sandy bridge doesn't make you special in any way, it makes you a dinosaur in terms of using modern tech.

Looking forward to building a new system with a 1700x or 7700k

i7 2700K @ 4.5 reporting

I helped my housemate OC his i5 4670K to 4.5 but he can easily go to 4.9. It's snappier, has better benchmarks, and has WAY better thermal considering that he doesn't need water cooling to run 100% load.

I get that Sandy Bridge is great but it's not that great

That's wrong, SB was really closer to a ~5% IPC gain over Bloomfield in the best case. It just consumed a lot less power and overclock like a bloody dream. Bloomfield got toast as fuck as you went beyond 3.6Ghz and suck on power like a fat kid at a candy store.

An highly overclocked SB chip is bandwidth-starved when it is pushed beyond 4Ghz. That's mainly why a Skylake at the same clockspeed completely overtakes that SB by a decent margin. DDR3 just doesn't cut it.

The difference from temperature comes entirely from shitty IHS/thermal paste job on Skylake/Kaby Lake chips. De-lid that fucker and that Skylake will embarrass that old 2600K temperature-wise.

>ITT: SB-fags who are completely out of touch with current platforms and can't understand that those tiny 2-5% bumps since SB do add up.

Its getting a bit dated but I can't justify changing. Looked at everything for price/performance, from Xeon 771 hacks to Pentiums to non-k Skylake overclocks, cannot make a case for doing anything. Still looking. Anyway, that shit says 2009, sucks senpai.

>>60073023

Kaby Lake has a number of platform improvements and the CPU itself is decisively faster at 4Ghz+ range then SB.

The real question is whatever or not these improvements are worth your time and money and you could simply wait a bit longer for something even better to come along.
