HalloKitty posted:I don't believe it's even barely adequate; I've always said that the stock cooler should never be used with a 4790K. Plenty of examples of people out there saying it throttles with it, bone stock. Just throwing away performance. Yeah but it's free

Combat Pretzel posted:That is implied in all of this. Except the quad cores are very likely outperforming your 6 core? I know the i5-6600k I want to upgrade to blows my current Phenom II X6 1090t out of the water, for instance.

Paul MaudDib posted:He mentioned he's got a 5820K, so it's not like he's running AMD. A 5820K will blow away a 6700K let alone a 6600K in anything productivity-related, and it does just fine in games too particularly if you OC. I missed his processor type so I assumed AMD, whoops I don't see the need for that processor to be upgraded for a loooong time

redeyes posted:140w cpus are no joke overclocked to 4Ghz: Thought about trying the Noctua NH-D15? In benchmarks it's super close to water cooling if not better than half the AIO coolers

HalloKitty posted:It would be my first port of call (well, the NH-D15S, so you don't block the top slot on your 2011 board) before I went to custom water cooling loop crazy town. Yeah, I plan on getting a board that has a 1x slot to be blocked by the cooler with a 16x under it for this very reason. The cooler is loving massive but goddamn it's good. redeyes posted:That was the next cooler on my list actually.. for double the price. It's slightly cheaper than most AIO water solutions. If you want high end you have to pay for it, unfortunately

Palladium posted:Looking at AMD's track record since Phenom, hyping Zen this early is never a good sign. I'm still on my Phenom II X6, mostly since the next chips that came out had a worse IPC and then following that were barely better

LiquidRain posted:I can't believe hardware decoding is still as much of a mess as it was when it first started arriving with the GeForce 9400 GT. The only program I trust to use it as much as it can is Windows Media Player. MPC-HC does a pretty good job these days. VLC is still lovely with it though.
