what I want to know is how a fucking gypsy got one before everyone else
Hunter Bailey
>Turbo 4ghz
Wasn't it suppose to be 4.6
Anthony Foster
that's the 3900x, not the 3600. 3600 will do 4.2 max turbo. god knows what the cooling situation or vrms on the computer in the bench was. what I do know is that whoever did the bench used a geforce 710 and 2666 mhz memory, so I can't imagine they sprang for the ln2
Christian Martinez
Sirs, please stop demeaning the brand Intel thank
Jose Martinez
Why not compare to the 9700k which isn't a retarded high core count with low clocks?
If you're looking at single core performance anyway, going for an 18 core intel is just retarded.
Oliver Phillips
You mean the 9600k, which is actually a 6-core?
Aaron King
>90% more expensive
>Less than 10% faster single core @ 4.5GHz+

Zachary Thomas
...i mean compared to the OP bullshit claiming
>1000% more expensive
>4% better single core
the 9700k is a much more sane comparison.
The 9600k comparison is also more sensible than the 9980XE
Also, how the fuck is 16% faster stock single core and 20% faster OC single core = to

Christopher Sanders
yeah as opposed to the totally fair and unbiased OP that used a $2000 CPU against a $200 one.
Jason Ortiz
if the numbers aren't there to justify the price in either case then what difference does it make if it's a $2 cpu or a $20000000000 cpu?
what about a 2990wx vs a 9980xe? be real, people buying these chips aren't gamers so single threaded performance doesn't matter, and the 2990wx outperforms the 9980xe in multithreaded performance and with the money saved you could buy yourself 6 fleshlights
Ian Cook
the 3600 IS a midrange CPU though, very likely to be used for budget gaming builds.
So compare it to the 9600k or 9700k, which is far more appropriate.
Isaiah Bennett
I just don't see a 9700k as being midrange. 9600k sure, but it's still $60 more than a 3600, and like $100 more than a 2600
besides that all modern games are gpu bound and literally any cpu released after 2010 is good enough for old games
tldr buy a titan rtx and an a6-9500
Hudson Watson
>9700k
>midrange
The 3600 is like $200 MSRP. Compare it to a 9400, or a 9600k at best
Isaac Barnes
compared to the $2000 CPU OP decided to use it is VERY much midrange.
Bentley James
Sure, but if we're going that route why aren't we comparing the 2950X to an 8350k?
Gavin Williams
Ask OP?
I didn't make this thread, just trying to provide a more accurate viewpoint than
>10x more expensive
>4% better single core
which is just ignorance and pure shilling
Jayden Smith
>$2000 CPU
It's like Jow Forums has turned into clown world. Who the fuck in their right mind would even buy a cpu over $300 when they likely just use their PC to browse the web at this point in their translife.
Jason Morgan
op here. try the 9400 if you don't understand hyperbole. it costs about the same as the 3600 and has near enough the same single core performance, but multi core performance is nonexistant
