Enhanced Intel Core i7-5820K Desktop Processor (6 Cores, 3.3GHz, 15MB Cache) with Advanced Hyper-Threading Technology Review

I managed to buy it in June 2022 and then from my hands, the release of the i7-5820k has apparently already ended. You need to be incredibly lucky to buy it in the future, only the i7-6800k will remain under thecomver of which 40% of the dead crystal (this is especially infuriating! ). I had to gather all my will into a fist to make this probably the most significant deal in my life. The processor was bought for Skyrim, in all the reviews on YouTube this processor on this game, especially when…

Some pros: 6 cores, solder under the cap! works with register memory! yes, I was not mistaken, the computer started up and functions normally with rdimm ddr4 (HMA451R7MFR8N-TF) I don’t understand myself, not the msi x99 gaming 7 board, not the i7 5820k processor, they don’t seem to support rdimm, but as it turned out they do! See photo! In the future, you can put a lot of server memory for cheap With its cons: i7 5820k riveted from untested 5960X chips, overclocking is better in 5960X, despite…

I chose the most advanced processor, which would be enough for several years. DDR4 socket 2022-3. Based on some experience, compatibility issues were looked at fundamentally by Intel. I liked this model for its characteristics and price (in November 2022, at the time of the first sales, I managed to for 16tr). Prots - space! Everything just flies! :) With compatibility, everything is fine!

I am writing about 5930k. Well. 6 cores and 12 Threads - in 2022 you won't surprise anyone with this. Except for 6 cores against 8, it is technologically no different from the 5960x, unlike the cropped 5820k . although the old 5820 can still be done if it is overclocked. It overclocks much better than 5960x and during overclocking the performance is the same within the margin of error with the overclocked 5960x, Stands under water Thermaltake Riing 360, works at 4500. I think it will take more.

Good overclocking potential! Stable 4600 MHz is a real figure. And with good cooling, the temperature of the overclocked 5930K will stay within the limits at which the 4790K operates in normal mode! It's impressive. Under the lid it has a silicon alloy - what is called "solder". And it pleases. There is no built-in graphics, HT turned off (because in FIG houses are not needed with such power. Well, unless you are professionally involved in rendering, etc.) - and the performance is simply…

I bought it as an initial one, in order to get acquainted with the 2022-3 platform. Then switched to 5930K. What is the result? In principle, the 5820K was satisfied. 28 PCIe lanes is not a disadvantage, but a feature: if you are not going to install SLI, then why pay more? And if you suddenly put two video cards, then x16 + x8 will not lose much x16 + x16. I installed SLI myself. There was an opportunity, and the percent changed. Summary: The 5820K processor is totally worth the money…

And so, I bought this device in August, even at an adequate price of 15,400, and the cheapest mat at that time. an MSI X99S SLI PLUS board for 10,500, ideally suited to my needs, even in abundance, and a new r9 290 video card (I was in a hurry with the choice, it would be better to wait, I took the GTX 970, but at that time I didn’t know about its imminent release ) and 4 sticks of 4 gb of ddr4 RAM (I’ll note that it’s a lot of ddr4 and this, in my opinion, is not good, because the prices for…

Having decided to upgrade, albeit belatedly (after all, prices had already grown 1.5 times by the time of the upgrade), I settled on the Socket 2022-3 platform and the 5930K processor. At first I wanted to buy the 5960X, but the price of 57 thousand did not allow me to decide to buy (however, in a month, the 5930K, unfortunately, will probably cost the same - today I would buy the 5960X without hesitation). Unlike the 58th series, the 59th has a full-fledged PCI controller for 40 lanes. This is

I’ll make a reservation right away - I’m not a specialist in hardware, but due to my activity I need performance. Bought for a new computer from scratch. The previous one is outdated. There was a Quad with 4 cores of 2.4 each, DD2, etc. It is probably worth mentioning that Asus x99-a, Noctua-D15 cooler (Two for 140mm, 1600RPM) took my mother. The case is equipped with three 120mm coolers from the front, and two more anthological coolers behind and on top. Overclocked using Asus 5-way…

Now, of course, there is no point in buying a processor for 30k. On the secondary for <7k it would be a good acquisition with an eye to overclocking.

In general, I am very pleased that I am the owner of this processor, before it was the Intel Core i7 2700k which I used for 4.5 years, by switching to it I got a 2.5-fold increase in performance when processing photos and graphics. This processor has excellent overclocking potential, fast and productive, it is more aimed at working with calculations than at gaming tasks, and if we compare it with other 4th generation or 6th generation 4-core i7, then in games it is not the strongest player…

For some reason, the most important characteristic is not indicated for this processor: 28 PCI Express lanes. Just as the PCI Express lanes on the Intel Core i7-5930K are not indicated in the amount of 40. This parameter is not indicated here for all processors, I subtracted it from the Intel specification. You need to understand, for example, that with 28 lines, you can use video cards in SLI mode only as x16 and x8. It will not work x16 and x16! Keep this in mind when choosing hardware.

The best processor from Intel today, not counting the 5930k and 5960x, but, again, their prices are unjustified. If you are not going to overclock this percentage, then it will become the best in your life

Excellent model for rendering and games. I did not use overclocking, because. everything suits me anyway, now I regret that I overpaid for the "K" index.
