Why the fuck do you people even care for HEDT CPUs? They don't even make 2% of the market.
Their motherboard cost is ungodly.
And on top of that DRAM prices are sky high and getting 4 decent DIMMs is fucking gonna cost you more than the moterboard itself.
What the fuck
>>60845663
You aren't the target group.
People who don't have to care about money and just grab the "best" they can get are.
>>60845663
because its high-end faggot and has all the features.
The only people who don't care are poorfags
>>60845692
>le poor Y U POOR
I don't remember this being the case when people recommend i5's and fucking pentiums
>RGB fusion with Digital LEDs
What are digital LEDs?
>>60845709
LEDs with digits
>>60845663
>They don't even make 2% of the market.
Because Intel made it prohibitively expensive for anyone but professionals looking to use them for paid work.
Ryzen brought 6+ cores to the masses. Now Threadripper is going to bring HEDT to the masses. Meanwhile, Intel still wants to hog all the toys. They can go fuck themselves with a cactus.

hello fellow ameribros
please tell where i can buy High Explosive Desk Top plese
thanks you
>>60845823
It's a bit pricey, but well worth it, my friend. http://www.legitreviews.com/intel-x99-motherboard-goes-up-in-smoke-for-reasons-unknown_150008
16 cores? Why do you need 12 cores for? 8 cores is just fine but 4 cores is the best for everyone and you should really consider 2 cores
>>60845828
thanks bro
allah be with you
>>60845833
"help he stole my cores!"
>>60845828
>reason unknown

>nobody wants to say that ANUS BIOS are garbage
So assuming you can actually OC those Skylake-X without deliding or three rads, is anything but the 6 or 8 core gonna be worth shit?

Hahaha nope. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kpoies2JcmI
>is anything but the 6 or 8 core gonna be worth shit?
It's still not worth shit because the PCIe lanes are gimped anyway. It's HEDT without the HEDT, but still just as expensive.
>>60845980
Man, those temps are fucking garbage and I'd never use watercooling, much less delid.
What a shitshow, holy shit Intel.
And he hasn't showed power draw, I can't imagine that will be much prettier, some good 270W+ ? Holy shit
>>60846033
304W. Overclock with AVX disabled.
>>60846047
>>60846033
Should have released this Fermi wannabe in Winter, nobody can survive summer with this thing.
>>60846059
Move to Alaska.
>>60846047
>304w
A weapon to surpass 9590.
>>60846269
We're far surpasses FX9590, we're in POWER8 territory
>>60846298
Hey at least POWER actually delivers performance. This shit is just miserable.
>>60845663
>Why the fuck do you people even care for HEDT CPUs?
What are you even talking about? 6 core i7s? Xeons? Do any but a small percentage of the people here care about those things?

>RGB lighting on an HEDT platform

pleb. that's the best part of owning a high performance intel processor.
>>60850060
hurts less than being burned half to death in a housefire when you thought you'd spend a couple hours playing vidya
>>60845663
There's something beautiful about a no-compromise platform. Even aesthetically.
Gaymen mobos have only one or two armored PCI-E slots.
HEDT boards they all match.
It's the little things.
>>60845914
Intel CPUs overclock like none other as long as you can continue throwing power and cooling at them.
Ryzen has a hard frequency wall just over 4GHZ that even with infinite power / cooling you can't get past.
I am imagining some truly monstrous benchmarks of liquid cooled OC'ed 18-core i7.
>>60846298
Honestly that's really good.
My X5650 at 4.20GHZ blazes it at 220W and that's only a six core part. The new chip is only running 80W faster with an extra 800MHZ and 12 more cores.
>>60849883
>What is EPYC
>>60845980
7800 and 7820x might be decent choices for ultra 1337 h4rdc0re gaymur bros who are willing to pay out the ass for a few extra frames, but otherwise what a trainwreck.

>>60845980
>muh PCIE lanes
>implying anyone who buys this shit chucks in multiple video and expansion cards
The 7820X looks like a steal.
>>60852615
Not with the DIMM/motherboard cost.
1700's can be found under $300 and can overclock on $90 motherboards with cheap air cooling.
The 7820X really has zero value when combined with $300+ motherboards and expensive cooling
>>60852944
DOA
O
A
>>60845980
sealed loop coolers are JUNk though.
they lose to high end air coolers
Custom loop is the way to go if ur overclocking a house fire like that
>>60845663
>Why the fuck do you people even care for HEDT CPUs
I have a server you retarded shill.
The power is necessary.
Why is it that no one "needs" HEDT CPUs now that Intel is so shit at them, yet 6 months ago the i7 was supposed to be the next minimum for shitty video games?
Fucking shill bitch, get fucked.
>>60845980
So that actually interests me.
I have a custom loop with 2x 480mm Rads.
I'm willing to bet I could keep that house fire below 70C.
>>60853436
>2x 480mm Rads.
For what purpose
>>60853508
He bought an i7 7700k
>>60845709
integrated quantization :^)
That is to say, not analog
>>60845663
Good goy, an Intel CPU Unlock card has been shipped to your address, please allow 5-7 weeks for delivery.

>80W faster

>>60851547
FYI the world record for a cpu overclock belongs to a bulldozer chip.
INTEL CONTINUOUSLY BTFO AND ON INTENSIVE SUICIDE WATCH
>>60851563
>80W faster
wat
>>60845663
HEDT is not for poorfags.
>>60845663
Maybe for AMD... but X299 is expected to cost <$150 for most motherboards and you can buy cheapest $80 memory and overclock it to 3600MHz without effort on Intel..
For AMD you need least a $300 motherboard and Samsung B-die, which is 3 times more expensive than Intel memory
>>60854249
And then anon woke up.
>>60854249

I think you got your inequality symbols mixed up anon
