Godly i7 thread

Godly i7 thread.

Bonus points for heavy oc or extreme editions.
Xeon is ok too.

Poorfags with amd anything else than i7 can die

60 dollar Xeon? (:

No

Skylake master race reporting in and reminding Haslel, Inferno Bridge and Sandy Vag owners that you'll NEVER EVER have IPC like me, no matter how much you overclock your deprecated hardware. :^)

...

get on my level.

got six of these in total in my rack.

I7 870 here. 4.17GHz, fucking amazing in the winter.

Where do I get an Intel chip that's not lowjacked by the NSA?

Are the mobile i7 welcome?

You buy an Intel chip from before 2006 that didn't have the IME built-in. Or an AMD chip from the FX line or older, as their newer stuff has a similar hardware backdoor included.

I love how all of you fags think out-of-band management is some nefarious plot to get at your porn habits.

proof you'd never hold down an actual IT job

It was a trick question because it's impossible. Proof you're a deceitful government shill.

I don't see why not, it's still an i7.

>boingboing.net/2016/06/15/intel-x86-processors-ship-with.html

If it's not quad core, it's not a real i7. More like a highly binned i5.

Fortunately yours barely makes the cut.
Everything starts becoming the soldered-on MQ version

H-hi

What do I win?

A cock in your mouth

nope, just a sysadmin. close enough i suppose.

Maybe, but it won't be yours.

The AMT vs RMB argument.

I respect that

Fortunately it is quad core with hyperthreading, so I pass the test

I wonder what all the people in this thread are compensating for

wtf is a T series?
Autismo?

Only 6? How cute...

I have a half rack of these.

here's your reply.

Friends, social obligations, hygiene, government assistance.

While the 4960X is great, I really do miss my 980X, which suddenly died mid-rendering. That thing just hammered along, and doubled as a space heater.

...

:3

respect the OGs

ejoy your electric bill.
Thats like 300W current draw for cpu only.

x5470 fag reporting in

No, no it's not considering at full load I am pulling slightly over 300w (311w is what im reading)

That's including all my HDDs, my monitors (since they're on the same UPS), motherboard, RAM, GPU, and LED lights and shit.

So no, that CPU is not drawing anywhere close to 300w. Maybe if it was the 8 core version at that speed. At most from the CPU itself it's probably a bit over 200w.

>electric bill
at stock it's rated as a 140w CPU (but so is the 5960x which has 2 more cores, so more likely it uses ~100-120w at stock) assuming normal average US electricity costs, that's ~$0.13 per kw/h. So ~105kw/h per month running 24/7 is ~$13.65 for a full month of 24/7 at 100% CPU load.

Even assuming your bullshit 300w number (which is way higher than what it would actually draw) you're looking at ~$29.25 for a full month at 100% load.

And again, that's 100% load 24/7 for a month. The average person will NEVER see use like that, and further, that overclocked 5820k Idles at VERY similar levels to the non-overclocked 5820k Meaning the majority of the time they aren't being used 100%, they will be using similar power since they are idle.

making that $15 difference significantly less in the real world.


Basically shut the fuck up, if you can't afford an extra $5-10 a month you probably shouldnt have a $400+ CPU and a $200+ motherboard.

I like my CPUs, but idk if either is considered good.

Only 4.6 kek you think your 2% increase is better than 200mhz

...

>2% increase

Stay delusional, poorfag.

You took the bait...

The dual core i7 SKU is for ultrabooks and good power management when unplugged. 6500u on ultrabook, 6700k @ 4.7 at home. Was pushing 4.8 but it proved too unstable. Guess I didn't win the silicon lottery

Even if it is bait, the average person is not going to understand that it is bait, no reason not to call out a liar when it's a lie that can be easily refuted. The bait aspect doesn't really matter.

Is a 2700k@4Ghz a decent contender?

Oldie but a goodie

How much can I overclock my I7-6700K? Is 4,6hz the max?

You forgot that the newer CPUs have a harder time reaching the same clock speed.

I7 4770, am i not a poorfag?

The highest I have personally seen is 5GHz but that was with a beefy watercooler. Running a corsair h100i, I get a comfortable overclock @ 4.7. If your chip is on air cooling, I wouldn't push much over 4.6

Most I've gotten without increasing voltage on 6700k is 4.5, I've also pushed to 4.8 before and brought it back down to 4.6 for 24/7 usage

I'm running the kraken x61, I think it can hold up the temps. Is anything higher than 4.7Ghz stable?

Also whats your configuration, how much volts are you putting on?

here
My 4770 performs about on par with my 6700HQ and I bought it like 3 years ago.

I think it was a good purchase, definitely not in any sort of tier to be ashamed of

5820k reporting in.

I really never see any 4960x users these days, even tho they are godly chips

It's a $1000 CPU that was totally destroyed by a $400 CPU 12 months later (5820k)

One of the biggest middle fingers Intel has done lately

On a Gigabyte UD3 I have my voltage at 1.2 when I run at 4.7 with a BLCK offset to I believe 102.2 and a 46 multiplier on all cores

I'm not currently home or I would give you every detail I could

I'm retarded BCLK*

Sorry, I don't feel the need to spend $100 for some useless meme hyperthreading feature no one has needed since they introduced it on the Pentium 4 20 years ago.

I did however take that $100 and use it for hardware that actually makes a significant impact in improving overall performance.

Most of you fags don't even do anything with your i7s besides shitpost and play free to play games.

>mfw everything for my new PC arrives next week
>mfw the suspense is killing me more than a 24 hour held-in-shit.

4.0ghz 3770k reporting in

I shitpost from the mobile, in fact I often am shitting while posting as I am now.
My i7 does wonders alongside with my ssd for music, massive sample libraries are devoured.

If you don't need the hyper threading then, yes, it's a meme feature. There are several workloads that benefit from hyper threading and the i7 series tend to perform better all around over an i5 of the same architecture since they start off with a higher clock speed

Yea that really was a dick move by Intel, 6 core 3.6GHz for $1000 then a year later the 5820k also had 6 cores at 3.3GHz for $400 (I got mine for $285 on sale). Both are unlocked multiplier and can OC to 4GHz+ (the 5820k can OC to ~4.5GHz on average). The 4960x also uses DDR3 not DDR4. The 4960x's only real advantage over the 5820k is it has 40 PCIe lanes vs 28 PCIe lanes.

But yea, Intel pissed off a number of people.

Can i be part of the club too?

Shh poorfag

Yeah, I guess

My 5 year old laptop is still going.. :D

2nd gen mobile i7

Samefag

u

stock i7 920

lol, o well

Yeh

That the i5 version of a Xeon.

1.09v for 3.30 GHz on a mobile processor. Kek

I prefer i5 desu. no need for i7

Yo Intel fags help me out. 6700k or 4970k? Both cost about the same in UK, but I'd have to get new RAM and more expensive MOBO for 6700k. Are there any actual gains in gaming from 6700k? What about temps?

I live in the UK and have a 6700k and it's good also who gives a fuck you cunt vote leave and FUCK OFF

Not really to be honest, but I went with the 6700k myself. I believe the 4970k has more PCIe lanes, but I would fact check that.

Have had two:
i7-920 that OC'd to 3.96 at only 1.285v
i7-4770k @ 4.4 GHz @ 1.29v

I doubt the 4770k will last anywhere near as long as my 920 did.

Are you STUPID? The 6700k has 20 pcie lanes goodbye cuckpiss you killrd yourself

Had these bitches going for the last 4 years, no unplanned downtime.

...

TURBO SERIES!
OH YEAH

Do NOT call CPUs bitches.

Why would you need an i7 for Gaming? Sorry if stupid question

Yay

Got a 6700K
Hows the OC?

I said to fact check you ornery cunt and the 6700K has 16 as well as the 4790k

Gay

yo yo yo

I am not worthy.

...

Very confy. Set for another 3-5 years easy.

Who said we're gaming lol

Bacc the fucc up, nigga, I'll call those hos whatever I wanna call them.

>cucked by the i5masterrace

Judge me guise.
