Never obsolete

where is this college? even poorfag schools in the US can steal enough government money to upgrade their computers like ever 4 years

Friendly reminder that Bulldozer and Piledriver are outperforming it in modern games and applications since devs stopped being lazy and started optimizing shit for multiple core usage.
He who laughs last...

This is the one that made the core 2 duo obsolete

if you got a 2500k that's still plenty of cores, I doubt any application is optimized for more than 4 cores.

all mobo cpu combos after this generation have anti theft technology which means a 3g chip embedded in the die

Intel backdoored every processor after this

It was obsolete by sandy bridge. The IPC difference is substantial.

for a while I had a evo2 ssd and a 1080ti hooked up to this

>Duo
If you had said Quad, maybe I would agree with you.

2500k retards are still fucking seething over this.

It's not that the devs stopped being lazy, it's more like they have to optimize for consoles first
Consoles have multiple cores which are relatively low clocked compared with PC, they really have to split the load across all the cores as it won't run with speed otherwise. This carried over to the PC port of games.

>quick someone posts the dual epyc screenshots the user posted some time ago

You say that but I'm really hurting and I can't stand my core2 any more. waiting for the next ryzen though.

FX beats the shit out of these, finewine.

This couldn't be further from the truth. The 2600 still beats the shit out of the 8350.

t.former 2600 and 8350 owner.

so this is why we havent progressed past 2006
its the same processor over and over again

An 8350 scores 650 stock on cinebench R15, yes its single core is ass but it gets it done.

>Friendly reminder that Bulldozer and Piledriver are outperforming it in modern games and applications
Utter bullshit. Even the """"eight"""" core FX chips still get humiliated by Sandy Bridge in modern games.

Provide literally even one example of an 8350 winning a head to head against the 2600K in a video game. Literally one. Even in Ashes of the Core Count it gets fucking STOMPED by Sandy Bridge. You delusional faggots are hilarious.

gotta admit these two "old" chips seem to hold up remarkably well, aren't they both around 8 years old now?

I have two sticks and recognize the heatsinks.
Why not install a Xeon there? There are some ones that are 775 or get a quad from China that is pre-modded.

Sandy Vag came out in January 2011, so is over eight years old now. Piledriver didn't arrive until October 2012, which further highlights how embarrassing its performance was. Bulldozer, one of the biggest blunders in tech history, came out a year before that and was literally worse than the Phenom II chips from 2008, let alone Intel's offerings.

That is actually a pretty hefty overclock on the 2600k, I agree with you but that test looks complete b.s., not everyone wants to buy a $60+ air cooler just to make their CPU now worth like $90 competitive.

gg no re

Yeah but that thing is pushing quite a lot of watts, at idle a 2500K/2700K stay at 15-20, open a window and it's already at 40 watts. The 3770K is a much better CPU.

>gaymen

I'm not a manchild.

>no AVX2

Absolute fucking horse shit COPE. You can overclock a 2600K to 4.5GHz with a very minor voltage bump and a $20 air cooler. The 8350 is also overclocked and uses significantly more power than the 2600K for those same 4.5GHz, whilst offering greatly inferior performance. And the other test with 4.8/4.7GHz overclocks is entirely fair, since you sure aren't overclocking an 8350 that far without at least as good of an air cooler either.

And hell, the performance gap is so gigantic that it wouldn't even be closed if you were running them both at stock speed, giving the 8350 a 500MHz clock speed advantage. Piledriver is just shit, and it's amazing that AMD fanboy retards STILL can't acknowledge that, even now that they have Ryzen to shill instead. No wonder everybody hates you retards.

either 6c/12t or 8c, to be precise

it's a performance metric
fucking deal with it, if you are indeed not a manchild

neither am I, I just thought this example was especially interesting since the normal narrative is that 4c/4t is "good enough" for gaming.

not that user, and dozer was fucking garbage, but to be fair you could run them insanely hot and they didn't care. I ran an FX-6100 at 4.6 on the stock cooler for 7 years. Maybe I won the silicon lottery, I don't know, but you could blast the power consumption and thermals on that thing without ruining its longevity.

I agree with you. The Duo now is only adequate for basic tasks and web browsing only if you have an SSD. Modern gaming titles will bottleneck the Duo quite badly.

I used a core 2 duo e8400 until last year. It's not even sufficient for web browsing.

Fucking Atom 330 with Nvidia ION can play 1080P H264.

av1 is a lot harder to play than h264 afaik. t410 can do av1 fine though jsut tested that fate encode

Only thing I bought full price was a Crucial MX500 500GB on sale for $58 from Amazon. Fully capable poverty machine. Runs windows 7/Linux flawlessly. Does all I need + games at acceptable levels since I mostly play light stuff like Hollow Knight, Shovel Knight, and WoW. Funnily enough, WoW still plays extremely good on my old stock C2Q.

gaming benchmarks are the only ones I can find that put the 4790K ahead of a 2600. My guess is that a 2600 is faster overall but a 4790K has better latency, shorter pipeline, etc

But I've finally put my 2600k to rest after almost 9 years. Upgraded to 9900k just last week.

I'm waiting to see what zen2 will deliver in terms of price/performance, maybe I'll skip this DDR4 generation and only get a new full build when DDR5 and a new PCIE come out

Well Zen2 is supposed to bring PCIe 4.0

DDR5 and PCIE 4 are nothing but gimmicks. No program uses the bandwidth DDR4 has except some benchmarks and even a 2080 Ti can't fully saturate PCIE 3.

The 8350 at 4.5 is getting damn near the 734 score of a locked i7 4770, which cost alot more.

No processor/computer is ever obsolete. They can always be used for some task.

Betting my life that it was a lack of RAM. I have a lower-end model that will cut through Javascript-infested sites like butter.

Obiously the IPC of FX chips is terrible, but alot of stuff scales the way cinebench does, it's not even a synthetic benchmark, it's a professional Cinema4D render that spits out a score based on how much time it took.

look at how delusional amd cheerleaders are, they are literally still and unironically defending bulldozer
remember this when you see them shilling ryzen chips they are always fucking lying to you
i5 9400f > r5 2600(x) AT THE SAME PRICE
i5 9600k > r7 2700(x) AT THE SAME PRICE
i7 9900k/i9 9900k > nonexistent competitor
when comparing price/performance look at the cost for the complete system and you will find that AMD is almost never actually worth it, the only exceptions are the 2200g/2400g which are actually quite a good deal because of the integrated graphics
DO NOT TRUST THEM about mobile ryzen chips either, they are much worse than intels mobile chips because their idle power draw ruins the battery life and they throttle at temperatures like 25C lower than intel which destroys performance and causes fans to spin all the time, not to mention they're still having driver issues over a year after release

>tfw 2700X has two more cores than a 9600K and only uses 10w more energy
My dude, accept that intel sucks ass right now, I like FX but I accept that ipc was not it's strong point and stay away from it if you care about single threaded performance.
