is it worth upgrading my i5-4460 to this or should i just switch sides and go for the r5 1600 which is a cheaper option (not sure)?
chosse i7 8700k and activate beast mode
Go with 1600. It's got hyperthreading and uses a lot less power. Same level of performance on both.
11% better than intel's new i5? this has to be wrong
Only 22% worse? I expected more Intel.
its about 35% better on stock if you overclock gap is going to be only bigger its not properly ranked yet
One day when my CPU becomes obsolete, I may go ahead and fetch me 2 extra cores. I just hope I can at least get a 20% overclock.
is it worth upgrading from a i5 4460?
you mean PC for your dog?
no need
of course it is.
you should also invest in nvidia even if you get a gtx 1050 2gb…….
I will be upgrading my PC to this…. and after the next gen Nvidia Volta is released, I will gladly give my gtx 970 as offering. :)
oooooo… can i have it
