Eletriarnation posted:If anyone's still going on a Socket 1366 system and hasn't tried a hexcore chip, you may want to try picking up a cheap Westmere-EP Xeon from eBay and seeing what happens. I have a Gigabyte EX58-DS4, which only advertises support for the much more expensive Gulftown and Nehalem hexcores and a couple of slow Westmere quads, and as far as I can see a lot of consumer X58 boards across multiple vendors are similar with EVGA really being the only vendor to offer widespread support for Westmere. ‘Sup, Westmere buddy? I took a chance with an X5670 for my old Gigabyte EX58-UD3R and it works pretty well, I’m running it at 3.6 stable with a moderate voltage boost. I mostly use it as a Hackintosh, which was basically a trouble-free setup on that platform.

Which Intel processor and chipset should I get in bed with for a home desktop server used for Plex, Excel, mixed integer programming, development, and some machine learning? No interest in over clocking or anything affecting stability. And I still have to work near it, so no used blade servers. One of the latest model i7s? What for the motherboard?

If the prices ever fall I'd get a B310, but given than Z370s are only like 20 dollars more I'd get one of those even if not overclocking for all of the extra features. The processor comes down to if you can use lots of cores and hyperthreading or not. If you can use HT a 8700 is basically your only option. If you just can use 6 cores a 8400 is the best option. If you only need 4 cores you can move all the way down to a 8100. If you want to go the Ryzen route a 1700 is basically your best/only option. 8 cores, best thermals, best price/performance. I don't know Ryzen chipsets though.

The worst chip I had heard of before this was someone who needed 1.36v to hit 4.4 and 1.42 to hit 4.5. That's pretty much my lemon 6600k. My 2500k was the only chip I ever had that could be considered good. It booted at 4.8 but I always ran it at 4ghz undervolted. Looking back I don't know why.

Some games are starting to touch 100% usage on my 6600k now (namely Far Cry 5 and AS:O) and over the next year or so it's going to happen more and more frequently. Now I don't really want to spend a whole lot overhauling my system, so is it worth upgrading to a 6700k, or should I just wait until Cannon/Ice Lake? (whichever is coming after coffee lake)

Most games perform worse with HT (though some a lot better) I'd wait for Icelake.

Looking at Intel's old processor releases, there doesn't seem to be anything for LGA1155 that has more than 4 cores, which is a bummer. I wanted to dabble in virtualization, and having an extra 2-4 cores would have been handy for that. Is there anything obvious that I am missing?

I’ve always had good luck with the silicon lottery - my 3570K and 3770K both hit 4.3 w/virtually no voltage increase and my 2500K and 2700K did 4.4 before having to crank up the juice.* Then I hit snake eyes, my 4790K won’t go over 4.4, and that’s stock turbo speed. It maxes out at 4.6 with a ton of extra voltage, the only way I can get away with it is the fact that I’m running a custom loop. I’m going to delid it just to help temps, but I know it’s not going to go any faster. *I check voltage with CPUID to make sure the board’s not cheating by upping the voltage.

You'll have to upgrade everything to get more cores.

I'm not sure if you're stuck to LGA 1155, but if you aren't you could always look into LGA 2011 systems. For example, the E5-1650 v2 is 6c12t, 3.2 ghz and if you paired it with a X99 board you can even overclock it a fair amount. Even if overclocking isn't your thing, you can find used workstations on Ebay for $375 shipped that come with 16GB of RAM.

Yeah I was hoping for more of a drop in replacement because I can’t totally justify a new system. I think I can hold off because it’s more of a ‘it would be fun’ and by an I need type of deal.

Really the problem you're more likely to run into is not enough memory.

5960xes are only 350 now. It makes me wish I had more stuff to use more cores. I'm mostly going to hold out for 6900Ks to hit that price because 8 core using apps will maybe be out there by the time they're that cheap. Right now 6900ks are in the 550 range.

That seems like a huge waste. I'd want to go to more cores if I was spending money, and as someone who owns a NVME drive it's a waste outside of benchmarks or doing lots of visualization. I replaced a 840 Pro with a 960 Evo and it puts up 3.5GB/s benchmarks, but the real world difference is very small. My next drive will probably be back to a SATA one for the cost savings.

Yeah I'd go for more cores with that system if anything. Threadripper I guess? What do you actually do on that rig? Your SSD isn't nvme.. your ram isnt 32GB.. Its rare for me to go under 16GB RAM load these days.

There was one guy who claimed you needed at least a 5960x for some games, but for me I don't feel limited in the slightest with a 5820K and a 1080 and I'm planning on getting the next consumer Nvidia card they come out with too. I want an excuse to use 8 cores but really a videocard upgrade will have more impact.

So a 8700K binned to 4.0 base/5.1 turbo — a speed bump rebranded as a special edition.  The anniversary (and likely launch date) would be right in line with Z390, I really hope this isn't a sign that they cancelled the 8-core because of meltdown.
