guys i have a workstation if the drop on the 6800 comes how much whould u think it whould be and could u sugest me a compatible motherboard with a gtx 1060 6gb Gddr5?
6800k should be an option. When it's on sale you can get it for $50 more than 6700k and performs 30-40% better as a workstation CPU and when overclocked performs identical to 6700k in most games, and beats the 6700k in new cpu intensive games like battlefield 1
If it was me I would use the Intel i7 6700k or i5 6600k gaming build because they're both pretty powerful CPU but I guess I would start off with the I5 6600k only for price.
in general for those building gaming rigs on the cheap, id recommend staying in the i5 ballpark and avoiding the fx lineup if they can, in the long run, its a much better investment. you could only imagine my disappointment when i learned that my 970 OC's to 1410 on the core was being held back in a good handful of my more cpu intensive game. RIP. EDIT: forgot to mention my CPU is a FX-9590
Hey everyone. We don't currently have a supply route for CPU's that would be of any real benefit versus somewhere like Newegg, but I know the buyer is working hard to get more components up on the site. So stay tuned and hopefully we'll be seeing more component drops soon.
yes its not exactly the best value option to go for a nicer 4790k however, the gains far exceed 10% on the intel side of things, this is just simple benchmarks and testing and the 4790 and the 4770k for that matter still obliterate it. http://cpuboss.com/cpus/Intel-Core-i7-4770K-vs-AMD-FX-9590
Why are you guys so fuckin stupid. You could of have choice the 5960x or the hexca xeon cpu. These are the best cpu ever and you guys decided to choose 4790k wow. idiots -_-
not even close bro but ok. not like i own the chip and regret my purchase or anything. yes. its a fast chip, but im fairly certain that a 4790k will perform better still without any OC tweaking. my problem with fx cpu's is that they have terrible IPC compared to other chips available in their price range, id take a quad core i7 over an 8 9690 any day of the week.
