I do not regret buying, because. assembled a system with full support for PCI-E 3.0. But if you are not building your system for this, then it is better to take the i5-2500k.

I have been using this process for about two years, 3 video cards and several small upgrades have changed, I see no reason to change at all, at the moment, paired with a gtx 980 and 16GB of RAM, I play all the new items at ultra 60fps + It will be relevant for a few more years, there is no point in overpaying for modern skylights, I don’t find any reasons for upgrading the processor, if I change it only to i7

Cannon race! From the first hour of use in overclocking 4.9 - dropping in 8 years to 4.6 The first instance of 3470k, in the hope of jumping over 5GHz, burned out (he died the death of the brave) Its pros: Works 8 years since 2022. First, I started with overclocking at 4.9, then for a long time at 4.8, gradually degraded, since the voltage on the core was 1.45-1.5 all these years. now 4.6 - all values ​​are stable The temperature is not more than 83 on 11 performance and MX4, and then usually…

I decided to upgrade the computer on the AMD AM2 socket before the release of the second Rome, as a result, I replaced everything except the case, switching to the blue camp. And I must say, I did not regret it at all. Proc. cost me 7.2 (the average price for it in the 13th year), and when you look at the price for which it is being pushed now, I feel somehow uncomfortable. What did I get for the upgrade costing 17 with a tail (motherboard under "K" status of the processor, graphics card, hard…

I took it with Gigabyte GA-Z77-DS3H, 4xDDR 4GB 1333 SAMSUNG. The processor stood at 3300 MHz at a multiplier of 33 and a bus frequency of 100 MHz. I was able to overclock in a multiplier of 41 and a frequency of 102 MHz. In total, almost 4200 MHz. And this is in a processor not from the "K" series. Plus, the memory took 1600 MHz. Not a bad result. True, earlier with a standard cooler tmax was 60 at 100% load, and now it is 73. I installed a TITAN TTC-NK85TZ/CS2 tower cooler. tmax became…

3570K is an excellent processor! It has been working for 3+ years under a severe load (almost 24/7) at a frequency of 4.3GHz @, the temperature in my meager case (Silverstone GB4 + thermalright cooler APX200) has not risen above 60. In games, more than 40-50% not loaded (video GTX 660 2GB). I think for another 3-5 years (or even more) it will be enough with the head and it is desirable to take a video for it no weaker than the GTX970 / R9 290 (which I plan to do).

I put it on ASRock Z77 Extreme 4. Bus 102.5, multiplier 44, total 4.5GHz. I have set the voltage to 1.288 so far, I think you can play and try to lower it a little. Now this processor price is a huge minus. The thermal paste under the cover is also a minus, you can warm up the core to 100 degrees and above by playing with frequencies and stress tests))))) Well, in general, it’s normal, GTA V goes with a bang) I think if you shoot the second video in CrossFire, then even on the ultras will pull…

I bought it to replace an old computer based on Core2Duo E8200 / 6Gb, tasks - Internet, audio-video, programming, a few games (both computers have Radeon 5770). I also decided to move at the same time to an SSD (OZC Vertex4 128). The computer turned out great, much faster and quieter than the old one.
