I wonder if the IT guy read reviews before doing this or not. Not even vs Intel, Vs AMD's number one competitor, AMD.

Dammit, looks like my Z77 board is getting flaky, and not detecting graphics cards 100% of the time  Normally I'd just replace the old board and chip with something newer and sell the chip, but kinda attached to this 2500K and not seeing much benefit to going Haswell. This might be the first time I ever replace an old motherboard with something of similar spec.

Darkpriest667 posted:What model do you have? I am still on a p67 board running strong for 4 years now! This board is an Asrock Z77e-ITX - it just intermittently decides there is nothing in the PCI-e slot. Cleared CMOS, tried another graphics card (one nVidia, one AMD), reseated them, updated BIOS's and tried betas. Same deal (Bugger is, I can find a lot of cheapish ATX S1155 boards, but most of the mITX ones are overpriced now. Was hoping to keep this alive until there was something really compelling to upgrade to)

Darkpriest667 posted:Bummer I have a Fatal1ty Pro board , also by ASrock, I swear by the Fatal1ty Professional series I've owned 3 of them with different chipsets and they have always been real good to me. I like ASrock as an alternative to ASUS and Gigabyte. Ya, this little Itx board has been awesome, fingers crossed it is just some crud in the slot. I'd buy Asrock again no question. Hoping Broadwell socketed chips are actually going to appear - aren't they the last procs z97 will support?

Skandranon posted:I think he was just suggesting not playing any games until he gets his new parts. Not to cool off, but not to push the CPU any harder. The goal is for nothing bad to happen to the CPU over those days. Yep, exactly. I guess that poster with the overheating problem is using a stock Intel heat sink, and the push pins are giving up the ghost. At least that's my guess. I hope intel's next gen chips include a bigass cache model like the 5775c. Also, are Intel sticking with external voltage regulators for next gen socketed chips, or will FIVR make a comeback?

I wonder if the next gen of high end GPUs will show similar results in SLI comparing haswell e to skylake. I think I'll base my decision on whether to get big haswell or skylake based on that.

VulgarandStupid posted:I have one, it works well for gaming but I'm not playing anything that's CPU limited, I don't think. However, unless you already have a H/Z97 board and DDR3, you're probably better off getting Skylake and faster RAM which will keep your minimum frame rates up. Thanks. I've been looking for, but can't find, good benchmarks looking at min fps in games. I'd like to compare the 6700k, 5820k. Don't suppose the hive mind can help? I'm also wondering if more cores are going to end up more useful for dx12 as time goes by.

Quick question. If anyone has a 6600k at around 4.5ghz and a 1080, what's the system power use? Just sourcing a power supply.

BIG HEADLINE posted:Theoretically 500W would be enough but go with a 750W for overhead. Thanks! Nabbed a 750w platinum. I finally found an excuse to upgrade (other half would like my 2500k). I wonder if any of the newer chips that support s1151 will have cache like the 5775c, that'd make this whole system upgrade as future proof as these things get.

Paul MaudDib posted:Still oscillating between a 5820k and a 6700k. I did this for a good while, then went for skylake. Mostly because of the improved per core performance, also a socket that should hopefully support a couple more chips. I hope I don't end up regretting it if dx12 / vulkan games performance gets a core boner.

For a gaming system though, does ht, usually, not help frames and min frame rate? (And in some circumstances actually drop them?) Maybe that's not the case in new dx12 / vulkan games? If it isn't the case I wonder if 5820ks and the like will seem a ton more attractive for gaming, even over skylakes strong single core performance.

Understood, I'd expect games to take advantage of more cores going forward. But is it conclusive that they will take advantage of hyperthreading?

Sidesaddle Cavalry posted:I'd hold off currently on buying a new i7 or i7 system with the intention of playing DX12 games, because there aren't a lot of games yet that use many of DX12's features to begin with, right now. We can't justify additional cores and additional threads unless we see how well specific games (i.e. the games you want to play in the future like Battlefield 1) actually scale with those cores/threads. This is how I felt about it; so I just bought a 6600k. Maybe by the time gains (hopefully) start to show, it'll be kaby lake time.

Posted this in the overclocked thread, but asking in here cos y'all helpful. Apart from core clocks, what are the advantages of raising cache / uncore clocks on a 6600k? Worth it? I'm running DDR 4000 if that makes any difference. (4.4 @ 1.29v)

I read many are hitting 4.5 at that voltage, at least in other forums I was reading. But I think it's pretty average for these. Not sure if the ram speed is limiting it, probably not helping. It's keeping just over 60deg on the hottest core loaded so not heat. My old sandy does that at 1.2v with way worse cooling.

NihilismNow posted:Maybe it is my motherboard but mine did 1.41 volt out of the box (6700k + Asrock Z170m Extreme 4). I have to run a -0.08 voltage offset to keep temps sane. It does 4.5 ghz stable at that voltage (1.33). At "stock" voltage it just cooks itself. Most of the time it is only running 0.7-0.8 volt. Mine was similar too in default "auto" voltages, Asus z170i. It set a bunch of other voltages way high as well, like user agent / vccio, etc. I fired it up at 4.4ghz, auto everything for the first boot after an install and it was giving the chip 1.45v vcore. Due to a buggy Bios (I think), offset voltage wasn't working - adaptive mode did, just when I was regretting the whole thing and wondering if my sandy bridge would do 5GHz with this cooler. That was a lovely bug. Wonder if this 14nm process is going to improve much? GRINDCORE MEGGIDO fucked around with this message at 19:57 on Jul 12, 2016 |

Green Gloves posted:I use the stock cooler/heatsink. Everything is pushed in snug and tight. I replaced the paste just recently because I upgraded my motherboard to use with a NZXT s340. I will check the fan setting If you took the Intel cooler off and refitted it, that could be part of why it's hot - the push pins can get fucky and the clamping force goes to poo poo.

My 2500k was relegated to office duty after upgrading to a 6600k two months ago for vive. I guess the 2500k system preferred gaming, as the board just died. RIP z77e-itx.
