Is intel haswell still good?

I need to know before i consider throwing it out the window

Also, I brought it one year ago.

>bought 4790k
>not sure if fucked up
Same oh well.

Memewell is still good, no need to give Intel more shekels. The only thing you're missing out on is DDR4, not a huge deal.

haswell is best well

i like mine.

Still good!

As a happy owner of a 4770k, I think most of us are safe from upgrading for at least a few more generations.

Really? I fuckin love my 4790k. Eats up anything I throw at it. Doesn't over clock much is my only qualm. Granted I upgraded from an i7-920 tho

>doesn't overclock.
>tfw you won the silicon lottery and are at 4.8ghz at 1.35 volts for the past 6 months

I had 4.7 stable but after upgrading parts it started crashing. I have 4.6 @ 1.26, but any more and it runs too hot. What cooler do you have?
Considering turbo boost hits 4.4 stock I feel like 200mhz is not much of an OC

Yup, my 4670k has been running STRONG since day one. Even 2500 and 2600k are still decent enough. Anything before that then I'd say memelake is a good upgrade, or if you can get haslel on the cheap go that route.

I have a kraken x61, since its haswell the vrms aren't frying the mobo cause of my all in one which is nice. I get like 61 degrees under a heavy load, although sometimes it will jump to 70 and then come down but thats just an effect of watercooling

Fucking Ivy Bridge, Sandy Bridge, and Nehalem/Westmere are still good. Processors have stagnated.

SPEAKING OF PROCESSORS, HOW IS BROADWELL-E?

i have 4790k, bought on release. won't upgrade for at least another 2 years and that's if zen is good. if it isn't, jewel will continue to release shitty 5% upgrades for 500 usd

Do you want to sell it OP? I have a spare Z97 board that I have been looking to fill.

>Is the Haswell series still good
The difference between Haswell and Memelake is 10-15% and that's generous.

SandyBridge to Haswell is respectively 20%. So there you go...

Nehalem and Sandybridge unfortunately was a good 40% difference. The people that bought first gen i5s and i7s kind of got hosed. But for laptops there isn't much to complain.

>no need to give Intel more shekels
For some reason skylake and haswell cost exactly the same where i live.

*unless 8 core zens cost 300 USD

>tfw 3570k
>tfw moving to 6800k soon

why?

>tfw moving from 950 to 5820K

Hey Sup Forums,

is this a good deal for a Workstation?

I guess there's your answer :^)

Because I'm giving my computer to someone and I want a hexacore

I have a 4460, and I don't think I will be upgrading for at least 3 years.

What's the best HEDT CPU to get? Is broadwell-e actually worth it over haswell-e?

Yes. They run clock for clock almost identical to Skylake processors.
Pretty much no reason to upgrade.

Why don't you read done benchmarks and stop spewing nonsense. Skylake also has higher clocks.

Broadwell-E is a pile of shit. Higher temperatures and worse overclocking than Haswell-E, with almost zero IPC bump. People blamed the 5775C being a piece of shit on its unusual design, but it turns out that Broadwell is just a shitty architecture.

Nice meme.

4690k

4,4ghz offset on rather cheap air cooling. Temps don't reach 80 in prime. I plan on keeping it for at least the next 3-4 years

Only shills went for Broadwell.

The Sandy Bridge 2700k came out over 5 years ago and it's still considered a good CPU. Haswell has several years left.

I hate this fucking waiting game
cheap DDR4 AMD CPU when?

>but thats just an effect of watercooling

What? That isn't how watercooling works. Air coolers are the ones that jump all over the place, Water cooling keeps things stable because the chip has to heat all the water up to an even temperature, so it takes longer to rise. It'll have an initial spike, stay at the spike point, which is lower than an air coolers spike point, and then continue to steadily rise before reaching terminus.

And only idiots went for newer than SB Intel. Braindead went for newer than SB non-E chips with TIM'd IHS (you're one of them).

I've seen a lot of 'lol ghz meme' here and there.

Assuming two CPUs are at the same rated speed, what would make one better than another? For example, I've got an i5-3570K which I believe is an Ivy Bridge. I don't think it's a bottleneck, and so I haven't upgraded. That being said, would I likely see a major difference upgrading to something newer?

If so, what causes the jump in performance? New architecture?

watercoolers have pumps that move the water thought the copper plater (which is were the temperature sensor is located) so if you don't have proper flow the copper will get hot specially with haswell and newer CPU with vrm integrated in the die.


The fluidinside my h100i is not actually at 31ºC thats the copper plate on the cpu block and pretty much all aoi works the same, you cannot have the temperature sensor on the wate ritself because once the water flows to the radiator temperatures drop considerably just by having a bigger area, which is the same reason why aoi sucks, even if you have fluid at 20ºC you can hit big temperatures like 80ºC because theres no proper flow and heat transfer.

>10-15%
k is nearly the same as a 4790k

pugetsystems.com/labs/articles/Haswell-vs-Skylake-S-i7-4790K-vs-i7-6700K-641/

No, 2700k was never considered good CPU, because its nothing but 2600k at slightly higher clocks and +100$ price tag.

IPC.

Is there anything that lists a definite IPC number, or is it calculated somehow?

Skylake + high speed DDR4 is probably only about 10% better.

So in another thread, I saw that AMD CPUs were pretty shit for gayming.

Will Zen likely rectify this, or will Intel continue to lead the way?

We'll have to see. Keller is a certified shit wrecker so it's a gamble.

I'm honestly sort of interested in what AMD is bringing out.

I'm not a brand loyalist, so I'm happy to swap between AMD, Intel and nVidia depending on what's best for my money at any given time. I kind of want to snag an RX 480 to replace my aging GTX 760, but then I heard Vega is just around the corner next year, and that's gonna be another boost, not to mention potentially another price drop for the 480, which would be fucking tops.

Do we have info on Vega so far? Is just just the high-end of the RX series? I'm so far behind on the upcoming releases.

The waiting game.
Its only worth it when its a fairly concrete fact that the upcoming release will bring massive performance increase. This was the case with Intel Sandy Bridge, it was known long before the release that the IPC difference will be huge compared to Nehalem. This is hoped to be the case with AMD Zen (relative to their own current or previous cpu arch), but since the hypetrain manufactured by AMD PR department for Bulldozer, no-one is holding their breath until there is a real product.

>sitting on haswell-e and kekin it

Is going from i5-4460 to i7-4790k worth it?

depends on for what, really.

That depends, is your CPU currently a bottleneck in whatever you're doing? If not, then not, it's not worth it. Wait until your CPU is what's holding your build back, and then evaluate your options then.

[email protected], 1.177v. Max temp when stressing with x264 is 75C. Maybe when I get better cooling solution I'll try pushing it farther.

Oh and I bought it recently. No regret.

sauce on that semen demon

Should I upgrade my 3470?
