AMD better deliver or else X79 is NEVER going to die

You're going to have to pry my 2600K from my cold dead hands.

Xeon e3-1245 v3 (so basically the i7-3770), and only now I start to feel like I might want to upgrade a bit, if only just because of the RAM speeds
AMD should just release the 3000 series already, so that the 2000's get even cheaper.

heh, i5 2310 from an asus prebuilt i got for highschool back in 2011. runs all games but struggles in cpu and ram intensive games. like EFT and Battlefield V

i7 4790k

>vt-d
Why?
Stop using a shitty OS instead.

i7 4790k @ 4.6 i am NOT giving up on this swiss cheese holefilled fast fuck any time soon. Fite me

Waiting for the Zen 2 5Ghz chips

i use gentoo, but i need to use wangblows for uni shit

i7 Haswellchads!
Cheers from younger 5775C bro (the one that's bit retarded, but still pretty cool)

Yo im about to delid my CPU next weekend, going for 4.8 on air w/a fuckYuge cryorig r1. liquid metal under. DELID DIS aint a meme. This is the last PC ill ever build. Going from gaymen to full neckbeard linux 24/7 has been an adventure. Too old for the games now bros

Still holding to my 3930k until Zen 2 releases.

2760QM chad here.

4790, still not bogging down what I need from it.
My homeserver on the other hand, the i5 2400 is starting to show its age. Waiting to see what Zen2 brings to the table.

3770 has never let me down. Will probably just get the new amd gpu when it comes out since my GTX 660 is starting to really show it's age on some newer stuff.

Q6600 to i7 9700k here

Had a 3630 that served me well for a long long time. However went to a 6750k few years ago since I was able to get it for $150 instead of the basef 500. Was surprised how bad it was with pretty much no change, just the ram speed made it only a little bit faster

4670k here, no real reason to move so far, though I did recently find a 6600k, so maybe I'll change just because

2600k represent

i5-4460, running at stock 3.2ghz
Treats me well since it's the oldest chip gen that still has AVX2 so I'm really not missing any instructions that modern applications/games use, but I really could use more threads then 4c/4t with some of my workloads.
Going to buy the highest clocked Zen2 chip when it comes out. If the whole 12c/24t at 4.2Ghz base ends up being true I'll cream myself.

Do you need to play video games under the Windows VM?
If not, then you don't need GPU passthrough, the "VGA" card is fast enough.

i need gpu passthrough for cad shit unfortunately

4.7GHz 4790K here, still doing pretty well. Its age is starting to show in some games though, a friend convinced me to play Far Cry 5 co-op with him and I've seen drops to 45-50FPS with very low GPU load, so I'm pretty sure the CPU bottleneck is starting to creep in. I hope Zen 2 is good because it's time to upgrade my gaming PC.

Still using my 4790k that I got for $130 back in 2015 lmao Still can't believe someone actually sold it at that price.

It's still fine for my needs without any overclockong so I'm probably gonna stick with it until DDR5 becomes mainstream.

You can find better processors in the garbage user

I see miku I click

Absolutely and utterly based and redpilled

I stopped caring long time ago. I run all new shit on ultra. I don't program. I don't run a server. I'm not a fucking microwave.
Fuck your 7 nm technology, Shittel.

2600K

just gave it a final life extension with a cheap rx 570. waiting for zen 2 / navi

>holding out
No, that's a retarded position on the same level as like "the silent treatment".
My stuff is older because it still works fine.

i5 4670K @ 4.4 GHz with no plans to upgrade any time soon

I'm not buying shit until I see some improv.

Not worth the money to upgrade yet.

I'm still on a 4690k

Laughs in zen. :)

>4770k
It's still good. I'd like to buy an NVMe SSD soon, though, which will require new CPU+MoBo+RAM. Hope it'll be worth it, because otherwise processors haven't really advanced that much during last 6 years. Maybe when Zen 2/Intel's whatever comes out.

i7 2600 non-k here, completely unpatched. I still see myself sticking with it for a while, I was using a E4600 until 2016

I don't understand this mentality.

I had a Q6600 until 2018, so i am ALL behind you using old hardware for years, but when you DO upgrade, you should upgrade to something brand new and do it all over again, at least that's always been my perspective.

I went from Q6600 to a 9700k, if I had gone from a Q6600 to a 6600k or something like that i'd have been pretty pissed, not even that significant of an upgrade.

But the 9700k doubled my core-count and got me from 3.2Ghz quad core to an 8 core at 4.6Ghz with MANY years of IPC improvements on top of that.

"upgrading" from an E4600 to a 2600 just doesn't seem like a great upgrade path to me.

it was dirt cheap, i dont need much so i lag behind a while to get dirt cheap cpus

- 4790K x2 (mine/gf's pc)
- 4700HQ (my laptop)

Haslel is lyfe.

started out with a 4670K, it OC'd pretty well, but the only 4 cores started troubles during intensive workloads. I realize HT/SMT is not always beneficial, and just introduces an artificial "delay" to certain tasks (Ie.: a core must do two things now at once), but the system still feels a lot more responsive.

I sold my 4770k and gtx780 and bought a 8700k and 1080ti

>Q6600 to a 6600k or something like that i'd have been pretty pissed, not even that significant of an upgrade.
yea that would have been dumb.
get a 4790K, 5820K and boy, do you have a winner.
It's a HUGE leap, and very easy on your budget. in fact, buying into the current stuck architecture is the dumb thing to do.

> inb4 AMD boy
eh, fuck that. if Zen2 will clock high, maybe it will be a worthy CPU without SMT.
> inb4 poor
I could buy a 9900K build this moment. but I don't like wasting money on shit things.

How is the 8700k? I have 3770K and 1080ti

same CPU + 2 cores... lol.
get a 9700K and experience greatness if you MUST upgrade.

IF you're upgrading, 9700k or bust.

No reason to get the 8700k at this point.

phenom II 965

Its blazing fast
5ghz

must be a great sample. friend's 8700K didn't OC for shit..

I managed to boot it at 5.6ghz once at 1.6 volt, but only booted and throttled on stress test

lol, I don't eat up all the silicon degradation stories, but that voltage would most certainly chop off its lifespan

Yes, but i only tried once

Waiting for zen 2!

doesn't vt-d only allow it to access the igpu?

mine oc'ed to 4.4ghz how tough r u ?

How does the i7 4790K stacks up against more recent CPUs? That's what I have and I want to update "soon" for compute heavy stuff that I'm experimenting with, but although I don't know myself that much with this, according to some benchmarks that I'm seeing, most new CPUs don't seem that much faster, at least not those in a normal price range. What the hell? Shouldn't CPUs have evolved more since 2014, with Moore's law and all that, or am I looking at this wrong?

C2D E8400

Moore's law is dead, user

>buying intel

i7 860 here. I'm pissed at no aes-ni support but it's not a huge deal
Currently holding out for amd's ddr5 offerings in 2021. A 16 core with fast ddr5 ram should last me for the rest of my career life

Ain't regrettin' nuffin. Especially after throwing in a GTX 750Ti.
