https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l8GyGF-m6wIi7 4790K was released I think in 2014, but it is still such a good processor.Will the new Panther lake chip change the scenario?I have an i5 9400F for the past 6 years, switching AMD now. Should I drop the plan and wait for something from intel?
>>107877711No, they peaked with the 5775C.They're still trying to make something as good while AMD stole the concept and keeps printing money with it.
>>107877711Alder Lake is really good.
>>107877711FUCK no.Dark Souls 3 filtered that piece of shit HARD.
>>107877724*Golden Cove is pretty good.Gracemont is 'alright' - I'd rather 4 more Golden Cove cores. Where is the 12c Raptor Lake intel? You promised it.
>>107877723Clearly not
>>107877711they peaked in 2020 with 10th genit wasnt perfect but the entire lineup made sense and the 10900k was blazing fast without having to deal with NUMA or het core nonsense with newer processors
>>107877711>>107877711No it peaked with the 2600k OC'd to 5ghz that I've been using up until 2021
>>107877711I was honestly quite disappointed with that cpu. It has some pretty terrible throughput on a number of common instructions.
>>107877711g
>>107877826Agree, i3 10th gen is goat>>107877899Such as?>>107877904Lol no
>>107877711They kind of did in a way, I guess. It's like peak stagnation era Intel. The shit that came after it was hardly any faster at all and it then lead into the 14nm+++++++++++++ era where Intel fucked up massively.
>>107877826I'm so happy to have built my computer in 2021 when I see all the bullflower people have to go through these days
>>107877911> Such as?Logical Shift by CL is horrifically slow, it takes 2 clocks per instruction. To really emphasize how bad this is. The amd athlon from 1999 could execute 3 such instructions per cycle. 6 times faster in terms of instructions per clock, and even when taking cpu clock into consideration the Athlon still takes the win.
That's very specific. How did you find out about it?
>>107877711My 4790K was running at 4.8GHz for 8 years until I replaced it with a 5800X3D.Its still running, just not in my pc.>>107877723The 5775C was a cool concept, but ultimately a dogshit execution.>>107877711>Should I drop the plan and wait for something from intel?Can you afford to wait with these RAM prices (they will only go further up)? If yes, definitely wait because 3rd gen Intel Ultra is insane and Intel is back, their 18A beats TSMC 2N.
>Can you afford to wait with these RAM prices (they will only go further up)?I can only wait half a year, but if not I will just sell my soul and buy a M1 Air for work, the main PC will be for hobbies and stuff.
haswell uncs...its time to...upgrade
They peaked (again (again)) with alder lake
>>107877711I'm still using it because I'm too poor to upgrade
