I have been rocking the W3680 for a while now. it has tons of value. plays all the current games like a beast. has an unlocked multiplier. I have overclocked mine to 4.2Ghz on air. its just a beast with its 6 cores and 12 threads.
You weren't kidding when you told us to prepare ourselves for the new content... great stuff, I'm so glad to see your videos in my subscription box again. Stoked to see all the new content! Keep it up Brian
Awesome vid man. My very first gaming Pc was a used hp z400 with an i7 920, 12 gigs of DDR3 and an HD 7770 that I picked up for $ 160 back in 2013. It actually did a great job of playing the latest titles back then but when the i7 couldn’t keep up any longer I slapped a used w3670 in the ol’ girl and it gave me HUGE performance gains and can still get down and boogey in the latest games to this day! I chose the w3670 because In 2016, when I bought it , the 3670 was Something like $100 cheaper than the 3680 or 3690 and I couldn’t overclocked with that hp mobo anyway. When paired with a GTX 1060 3gb Edition , it could max out just about anything out there. Great cpu for the money and once again , great content bro!
I have i5-2400 for 5 years, no plan on upgrading for next three years, 900p gaming with GTX 1050Ti, constant 60fps in decent settings. No need i7-8700k :-(
The other unique thing about the W3680 and W3690 is that their multipliers are fully unlocked, in that they're not limited like their 'X' SKU counterparts (e.g. X5670).
Congratulations on your new studio Brian! Personally I think the lighting and the setup should remain the same as your old place, please make that happen if possible. Another request that I would like to make, in all your forthcoming PC of the month builds do include clips where your disassemble the GPU and other parts(even delid) for cleaning and applying thermal paste, I simply love watching it. The Bottoms Up PC video is a good example. Best wishes to you!
The processor I've been most impressed with lately is the Core i5 8250U. It's a Kaby Lake R mobile processor released late 2017, with four cores and hyperthreading. It gets 500cb+ in Cinebench R15 with a TDP of 15W, so you get beast performance with long battery life. You can find these in laptops that cost as low as AU$800.
Hi tech yes city. I want to chime in with a bit of info. In 2012 I built a PC, 1155, asus p8b75m lx motherboard, penitum g680. recently, two months or so ago, I bought a e3 1240 for some 90 bucks, dropped that into my system and the thing flew. Having great experience with that CPU, I recently decided to buy a 1155 motherboard (h61m vg3 ), get another e3 1240, and dropped that into my brothers old case. He already had a GPU, so I just threw in a new PSU (his old one was a Dell proprieatary case), DDR3 RAM and the thing flies. One thing I would recommend for these CPUs, if you are upgrading from something like i3 or i5, the stock cooler won't be enough. For both mine and brothers PCs, I'm using Arctic Cooling Alpine series CPU coolers, and these things really rock. They are huge, but actually fit well into h61m vg3 (which is micro atx) and dead silent. On the stock cooler these CPUs go to 70 -80 degrees playing Path of Exile in no time, but with Alpine cooler don't go over 60. Considering that for the first upgrade I just had to get the CPU and a cooler, an upgrade that was under 100 bucks in total, is phenomenal. The other PC was a bit more dated, so I had to buy a new PSU and RAM, a used motherboard, along with the CPU but the upgrade was well worth it, and under 150 USD in total. Regarding e3 1220, considering it's a few digits below e3 1240, and has no hyperthreading, but for a bit more than half the price of e3 1240, is also such a steal. The x3470, I'm not sure, the price and cores make it tempting but the TDP turns me off for some reason. I had a PC built based on LTTs "150 USD gaming pc" and that system was loud as heck. Not to mention that most motherboards come from proprietary server systems. So I would think twice about getting x3470, the price is attractive but the higher clock and lower TDP of e3 1240 make it somewhat a better bargain - that is, considering I had seen a few for the low low price of 50 usd in one of my local online sellers. THAT, would be a steal, and even still, a new e3 1240 is 6 times what I paid for it.
well, x5690 cost arround 110 on ebay... not the cheapest, but you got 6 cores /12 threads up to 3.73 ghz at stock, out of the box. And of course no mention you can actually overclock easily at 4.3 or even 4.4 ghz. or even higher in a decent x58 and aio. Nice content man.
With the mobo I had, I managed to get the X5650 to 4.4GHz, but only with turbo. And that was with 1.4v constant. I didn't gain any tangible performance increase so I stepped it back down to 4GHz at 1.25v.
Thank you so much for making this video. If you ask me, gaming channels obsess way too fucking much on overclocking. Would it seriously kill anybody to use something that doesn’t overclock? I used non-overclock CPUs for years. Still an awesome experience.
Actually bought the X3470 four months ago, for a CPU upgrade in my home server. Great CPU, got it for $47 back then :-) Using it on a Supermicro X8SIL-F motherboard with Intel 3420 Chipset.
I built my gaming pc at the end of last year (december) and I'm rocking the xeon x3430 at 3.4ghz! Its pretty damn solid! I'm thinking on upgrading it along with my gpu (which is a gt 640) into a used gtx 970 and that xeon x3470!
This was a really great video. I like the fact that you included the price of the motherboards as well as the different ram you can use. Plus, showing the website listings always helps so we can see where you got them from. I think lots of times when people do these videos the don't take into account the plateform as a whole. It wouldn't matter if you can get the CPU for dirt cheap if the motherboard and ram double or triple the price. This video will help me a lot as I am not well versed in overclocking and trying to find out if a motherboard can overclock adds more problems to the search. Thanks
A video on the best price to performance platform would be excellent - include the CPU and motherboard - x58 is outstanding, but the boards are still pretty pricey, so other ideas there are always good.
Bought myself a xeon 1231v3 2 years ago for only 150€. Locked it to 3.8Ghz core + 3.7Ghz ring ratio on b85 MB and I'm happy with it ! Gotta love those Xeons !
I5-2400 ? Is in my perspectieve a good choice asswell non overclockble and socket 1155 can also find them cheap araund 30,- eu and in some prebuild systeems
@@tomwes8390 I updated around 150 Dell optiplex 790's and 3010's, all with 1155 cpus in April of this year, so I guess that you was a little bit wrong with that comment
I actually got one of the E3-1270V2s to replace my i5 3350P was great at 140 bucks works well for gaming paired with a Graphics card upgrade let me extend my PC until later for a better upgrade down the road.
When it comes to used parts its hard to make guides considering how much different prices people can find, I found a gtx 970 near me for 140 usd which most people won't find probably. When it comes to building a used pc it's just finding the cheapest you can that fits your needs and knowing whats compatible with what
Can't get those cards easily right now. Their prices are also inflated on eBay (people are paying ~$190 for 7970s, similar scenario for older nVidia GPUs).
Miles Deighton when is spring in your place? how low should I be expecting from current 180$ used? maybe 1060s would go down significantly too, assuming cryptomining crashes simultaneously
People are thinking April. Even then the old cards (970 etc) are inflated in price right now because people are trying to find gaming cards during this crypto-mining thing, I have seen 4G GTX 680's going for >$200 on eBay, so it's not worth it to buy anything at this moment.
Great videos. But one suggestion I have is that it'd be interesting to see benchmarks for each of these comparing them to modern processors at the same (or closest) price.
I mean, if you are already ready to go through the hassle of ordering parts from AliExpress and building a custom used PC I see no reason you wouldn't want to change a few dials in the bios to get extra performance
I'd love to see a a test with those Huanan boards, because from what I've seen their BIOSs are very basic and, at least some, can't OC. No info on their VRMs either.
Can confirm the E3-1270 cpu is a great CPU. I have one on a ASRock H61M-DGS R2.0 (no update required) combined with a 6gb gtx 1060, runs everything I throw it maxed on a 1920x1200 monitor.
x3470 is such a great cpu. I miss my old LGA 1156 system I had that thing up until last year. Started with an i3 550 and that lasted me until 2014 then I drop a x3470 in and ran it with a pretty high OC at 4.3 until my mother board kicked the bucket last year. I've got a ryzen 5 1600 system now and it's mind blowing how fast it is but I do really miss that old system.
Great video look forward to more from the new studio ! So the e3-1220 will work with h61 mobo's ? I have a pre built acer w/ i3-2120 ive been upgrading over the past year ive left the CPU till last and now looking to upgrade, i was going to go for a i5-2500 but i can get the e3-1220 for less. I just always thought 1155 socket xeons would need an z68 / p67 mobo. Also how badly will the i3-2120 be bottlenecking the GTX 660ti i got for the system ? Any help appreciated i know these are dated parts just trying to get into PC gaming on a budget.
Still rocking my i5-3570k at 4.4mhz, 52c gaming, with updated 1060 GTX. 1600 DDR3. Does anything I want...why buy a new rig? This CPU may last many more years. Built it nearly six years ago. MSI Z77 motherboard.
I have my self a one Sandy Bridge E3-1230 that i manage to base clk overclock +200mhz (base / boost, 106 base clk) on kids computer build with used "base parts", mobo, cpu and gpu, and another build in progress for 3. / spare computer i got E5-2667 ES for 62 Euros, with SSD and decent gpu, these perform similar to my Ryzern 1600 main in day to day use and in certain games. (CS GO mainly, which i play more seriously i should xD)
Uhh Bryan you messed up the W3680 comes with an unlocked multiplier and can reach 4.6 to 4.8GHz on air with good temps. I would know because I own one. Nevermind he mentions it being able to OC in the video lol.
I think I found my next PC (Prices in USD): $150 - HP Z420 Workstation (BAREBONES on Ebay: No RAM, HDD or GPU) (socket 2011, DDR3) $130 - Xeon E5-1650 v2 (6c12t @3.5GHz) ~$80 - 16GB some kind of ECC or maybe normal desktop RAM (DDR3 :D ) Sell the old CPU for ~$75 (E5 1620 v1) Use my old R9 290 or just get a new GPU from eBay or Craigslist (I got my 290 for $130 because it was broken but I fixed it) Thoughts?
Your 1620 might do just fine for gaming: Xeon cpu pc build bf1 battlefield 1 Played in 4k on 1080 ti and Xeon E5 1620 V2 LGA 2011 ruclips.net/video/8eMLYBPr7P8/видео.html
My main computer is a Dell Precision T1600 with an E3-1245 with a GTX 1650 and 8 gbs or DDR 3 RAM. A new PSU and a USB 3 expansion card and I am good to go.
With word coming out that chipsets older than 100 series from intel, not getting bios fixes for meltdown and spectre, the whole used market just took a kick to the balls. I'd strongly advise against jumping on a non supported older platform.
Don't forget the v2 (Ivy Bridge) versions of the E3-12xx processors. They use less power and are a bit faster so if you can get them for not much more money they might be worth a look. I have an E3-1240 v2 and it is very comparable with a i7-3770 but without the integrated graphics.
Great video! Looking forward to the E3 1220 v3 at the moment, maybe it's time to upgrade from lga775 Why don't you update this video to the 2020 version? :)
You say e5-1270V2. Page description shows E3-1270V2. Otherwise, very good video as always. Enjoying the new studio, really nice. Great views as well, cheers.
GTX 980 Ti on used for High-End gaming and GTX 770 for mid-end gaming. This 2 got the best price. The GTX 980 Ti can cost 200$ in good deals and for GTX 770 the price is around 80-90$
a perfect video for my current situation, ty for this type of content :) my 920 and crappy intel x58 mobo do ok, but for a very good price i can get a one of these server processors and will get some benefit i believe. right now, i'm at 4.02 ghz but with hyperthreading off because the crappy intel mobo starts to throttle the cpu beginning at anything over 3.6 (from 2.67) with ht on. i was pretty much set on a x5670 but that w3680 is cheaper and i'm pretty sure they will yield basically the same result. cheers
The W3680 is a beast, i managed to get mine to 4.5ghz no throttling at all. it can even handle a new GPU, i have a GTX1070 and have no bottleneck at all
I bought a i7 4790k for 130 Euros. The seller had problems booting and starting Windows. He had to reset multiple Times but then it worked fine. In my Maximus VII Ranger for 95 Euros with all Accessoires it's running just fine. Great luck If you ask me...
You know i really want to buy used but my concern is the spectre/meltdown crap... I don´t know which boards have been updated and which not against the vulnerabilities.
you can't change the clock multiplier but you can change BLCK speed. There is a vid. where a guy changed it from 100Mhz- 180Mhz gaining from 5660 up to 4,1 Ghz with slightly above 60 dC on stress(water cooling)
Came here from your new top overclocking cpus. Given overclocking motherboards are 100 gbp plus it always seems cheaper to buy a second hand workstation in uk with case and psu and ram and then you can sell it on when get bored of it as a full pc!
Use cpu-world to ensure what max all-core CPU frenquency in turbo-boost instead of intel's site, wich shows "max turbo frequency" only for 1 core. e5 2640 has max turboboost 2.8GHz on all cores, not 3GHz
Last july i got Ryzen 5 1400, asus b350 and 2x4gb 2666 ram bundle for 320Eur. But i decided not to buy a new gpu since my r9 270x was enough for csgo/dota... Now i wanna play pubg/new AC, battlefield 1 and so on, but cant find any normal priced gpu.. What's the best equivalent to gtx 1060 in the uses market, for less than 300eur?
glostermeteor I'd recommend you the 1050ti as I use one myself... I play lots of BF1 on a High/Ultra mix mostly staying in the 58-67 fps range. If you can get it for a low price, don't hesitate... That's all I can tell you, hope it helps. :)
Got an i7 3770 (non K) for about 115 USD great CPU for the price, but in games I can't see a difference from my old overclocked to 3.6 i7 860 (got for like 60 USD 1.5 years ago) because my HD7950 is a bottleneck, so in reality it's difficult to get a cheap and powerful enough GPU to bottleneck even i7 from 8 years ago.
At some point the gpu and DDR4 bubbles have to burst. The DDR4 bubble is totally due to opportunism and gouging as there is obviously no shortage of DDR4 as you can get it no problem. The gpu bubble is actually due to supply and demand as miners are actually buying them up by the truckloads.
christopher james I don't need to buy another gpu or system cause I've got gaming laptop with ddr4 and 1050ti for half-price, I just need another PC as a backup and test bench, so 7950 and 3770 should suffice
I like your picks, especially e3 1220 and e3 1270, but. What are your thoughts on e3 1230 and 1240? I got 1240 and it performs pretty well. Is it the fewer cores on 1220 that make it better for gaming?
Tech Yes City, what Do you think of the P67 for LGA 1155 i purchased an AsRock P67 Extreme 4 Gen 3 off CL for $15? Was hoping to put my i5 3470 in there once i have the rest of my components. Thank you for the great video enjoyed seeing you in the new studio.
Lothaire Cliquennois thanks for the input, would you be able to elaborate on the pros or cons I should be aware of? This will be my first full build and all the knowledge I can gather the better.
top 5 xeon cpus
Loved the vibe in this video Bryan, really chilled, like a mate just talking to you about some good used CPU deals, great video!

W36XX series is unlocked and hence can be OCed ...... even on an OEM MB you can use Intel's utility XTU for overclocking without going into BIOS.
I have i5-2400 for 5 years, no plan on upgrading for next three years, 900p gaming with GTX 1050Ti, constant 60fps in decent settings. No need i7-8700k

SlavjanA BUT they are not usable in dual-cpu configuration... Really sad if you bought an server on ebay for 2€+19€ shipping.. 😂
True.
The first CPU example is exactly what I did, got an i5 2400 Dell Optiplex and threw in a 1050ti and I play pubg everyday
how does it do?

I got the i5 4460, pretty cheap used and with a 1060 you can play anything 1080p +60fps
RAioD Edilan Its capable of ANYTHING except bf1. Its useually at 100% in bf1 for me wich causes a bottleneck
Even my i5-4590 gets pegged at 100% in BF1. Definitely recommend something stronger than a 4th generation i5 for that game.
RAioD Edilan bullshit, watch dogs 2, ac origins, battlefield 1 will drops to the 40's, weak af cpu.
i got an i5 4690k its good runs all the games i play

pues yo compre un x5680 y una msi x58 ecplise sli por 100 dolares! con 10 gb de ram la mejor compra de mi vida!
Noticed the i5 3570 going for $45 AUD at CeX, seems like a great quad core for non overclockers

Can you make the same type of video but about graphics card?
Can't get those cards easily right now. Their prices are also inflated on eBay (people are paying ~$190 for 7970s, similar scenario for older nVidia GPUs).
$180 for 970, good today?
Cy Sy just wait, the prices on older cards like 970 will drop when NVIDIA releases their new cards this spring
Miles Deighton when is spring in your place? how low should I be expecting from current 180$ used?
maybe 1060s would go down significantly too, assuming cryptomining crashes simultaneously
People are thinking April. Even then the old cards (970 etc) are inflated in price right now because people are trying to find gaming cards during this crypto-mining thing, I have seen 4G GTX 680's going for >$200 on eBay, so it's not worth it to buy anything at this moment.
you should have included the i5 2400 and 2500 and the 2600. lga 1155.
Love the shirt man!
Great videos. But one suggestion I have is that it'd be interesting to see benchmarks for each of these comparing them to modern processors at the same (or closest) price.
Can we do overclockable next
first video in the new studio!!!! yeah boi
W3680 is definitely overclockable, Im running my W3680 on a Asus P6T at 4.54Ghz paired with a GTX1070
awesome video bro and again Awesome shirt :D
I just bought an i5 2500k 16gb ram gtx 780 ti rig for $500 AUD bargain or nah?
ye
That's a good deal, GTX 780 Ti is the same as a GTX 1060
the 3gb 1060?
Between 3gb and 6gb 1060, yes. Pretty much GTX 980 equivalent!
@@hunterkillerii1483 sorry bullshit man 780ti loses to 570 and is a power hungry 970 equivalent
Overclockable version of this vid is much needed hahaha!
The new studio looks great!
I mean, if you are already ready to go through the hassle of ordering parts from AliExpress and building a custom used PC I see no reason you wouldn't want to change a few dials in the bios to get extra performance
Pavle Dencic what's the hassle with buying from AliExpress. You just press order and wait 2 months
I got a e3-1240v5 for 100 dollars shipped. Paired it with MSI E3 V5 Krait-motherboard and running 4.5GHz on it. Skylake! Happy days 😀
I'd love to see a a test with those Huanan boards, because from what I've seen their BIOSs are very basic and, at least some, can't OC.
No info on their VRMs either.
2:15 Which X58 motherboards?
Can't wait for top 5 OC CPUs
Can confirm the E3-1270 cpu is a great CPU. I have one on a ASRock H61M-DGS R2.0 (no update required) combined with a 6gb gtx 1060, runs everything I throw it maxed on a 1920x1200 monitor.
x3470 is such a great cpu. I miss my old LGA 1156 system I had that thing up until last year. Started with an i3 550 and that lasted me until 2014 then I drop a x3470 in and ran it with a pretty high OC at 4.3 until my mother board kicked the bucket last year. I've got a ryzen 5 1600 system now and it's mind blowing how fast it is but I do really miss that old system.
Great video look forward to more from the new studio ! So the e3-1220 will work with h61 mobo's ? I have a pre built acer w/ i3-2120 ive been upgrading over the past year ive left the CPU till last and now looking to upgrade, i was going to go for a i5-2500 but i can get the e3-1220 for less. I just always thought 1155 socket xeons would need an z68 / p67 mobo. Also how badly will the i3-2120 be bottlenecking the GTX 660ti i got for the system ? Any help appreciated i know these are dated parts just trying to get into PC gaming on a budget.
wow nice budget builds men i love it
Just picked up a e3 1220 v2 for 20$ thanks for the recommendation it's really good cpu especially for 20$!
Still rocking my i5-3570k at 4.4mhz, 52c gaming, with updated 1060 GTX. 1600 DDR3. Does anything I want...why buy a new rig? This CPU may last many more years. Built it nearly six years ago. MSI Z77 motherboard.
Don Cannady great underclock..i must say😁
lol
I have my self a one Sandy Bridge E3-1230 that i manage to base clk overclock +200mhz (base / boost, 106 base clk) on kids computer build with used "base parts", mobo, cpu and gpu, and another build in progress for 3. / spare computer i got E5-2667 ES for 62 Euros, with SSD and decent gpu, these perform similar to my Ryzern 1600 main in day to day use and in certain games. (CS GO mainly, which i play more seriously i should xD)
Uhh Bryan you messed up the W3680 comes with an unlocked multiplier and can reach 4.6 to 4.8GHz on air with good temps.
I would know because I own one. Nevermind he mentions it being able to OC in the video lol.
I think I found my next PC (Prices in USD):
$150 - HP Z420 Workstation (BAREBONES on Ebay: No RAM, HDD or GPU) (socket 2011, DDR3)
$130 - Xeon E5-1650 v2 (6c12t @3.5GHz)
~$80 - 16GB some kind of ECC or maybe normal desktop RAM (DDR3 :D )
Sell the old CPU for ~$75 (E5 1620 v1)
Use my old R9 290 or just get a new GPU from eBay or Craigslist (I got my 290 for $130 because it was broken but I fixed it)
Thoughts?
Your 1620 might do just fine for gaming:
Xeon cpu pc build bf1 battlefield 1 Played in 4k on 1080 ti and Xeon E5 1620 V2 LGA 2011
ruclips.net/video/8eMLYBPr7P8/видео.html
My main computer is a Dell Precision T1600 with an E3-1245 with a GTX 1650 and 8 gbs or DDR 3 RAM. A new PSU and a USB 3 expansion card and I am good to go.
With word coming out that chipsets older than 100 series from intel, not getting bios fixes for meltdown and spectre, the whole used market just took a kick to the balls. I'd strongly advise against jumping on a non supported older platform.
Christian Exactly
Brian, Ya left out the most important one, The X58 Xeon X5650.. Hands down the best CPU....Price for performance to date.
Motherboards are very expensive :'(
Noice LIST Bro
Good video!
We love our x58s
Don't forget the v2 (Ivy Bridge) versions of the E3-12xx processors. They use less power and are a bit faster so if you can get them for not much more money they might be worth a look. I have an E3-1240 v2 and it is very comparable with a i7-3770 but without the integrated graphics.
I like the hand count down
Not on the list but I recently got a i5 3570 for around 45USD. Can set turbo to 4ghz in my P8Z77-M motherboard. I'd say it's worth even if it's non-k.
was waiting for the middle finger on #1. was sadly disappointed.
You should also give cinebench score of the cpu's at their stock and overclocked speed which will be very helpful in comparing them.
I5-4590
4690k?
4590 is way cheaper and 95% as good for gaming
Non-K Intel processors have lower TDPs as well, which means lower temps and better longevity.
i just wanted to be part of the club cuz i have a 4690k that i got from offer up for $150 with a z97 mobo, thanks tech yes city for the motivation!
Kisho 911 dam that’s a steal
Thanks.. your video helped me a lot.. Youve just got a new subscriber.. :)
how much should i sell an intel 3930k, 16gb ddr3, and and asus x79 motherboard for (preferably in GBP)
Sharkbait Ill give you 150
It isnt that hard to figure out the price for the CPU as the performance is between a R5 1500x and R5 1600.
Great video! Looking forward to the E3 1220 v3 at the moment, maybe it's time to upgrade from lga775
Why don't you update this video to the 2020 version? :)
Omg this list made my day
You say e5-1270V2. Page description shows E3-1270V2.
Otherwise, very good video as always. Enjoying the new studio, really nice. Great views as well, cheers.
Can you do a "top used graphics cards for people who want to do high-ultra gaming without getting affected by the current crazy GPU pricing"?
GTX 980 Ti on used for High-End gaming and GTX 770 for mid-end gaming. This 2 got the best price. The GTX 980 Ti can cost 200$ in good deals and for GTX 770 the price is around 80-90$
a perfect video for my current situation, ty for this type of content :)
my 920 and crappy intel x58 mobo do ok, but for a very good price i can get a one of these server processors and will get some benefit i believe. right now, i'm at 4.02 ghz but with hyperthreading off because the crappy intel mobo starts to throttle the cpu beginning at anything over 3.6 (from 2.67) with ht on.
i was pretty much set on a x5670 but that w3680 is cheaper and i'm pretty sure they will yield basically the same result. cheers
The W3680 is a beast, i managed to get mine to 4.5ghz no throttling at all. it can even handle a new GPU, i have a GTX1070 and have no bottleneck at all
nice, thx for the assurance
I bought a i7 4790k for 130 Euros. The seller had problems booting and starting Windows. He had to reset multiple Times but then it worked fine. In my Maximus VII Ranger for 95 Euros with all Accessoires it's running just fine. Great luck If you ask me...
Brilliant very informative, can you do the same sort of video but with overclocking?
Nice studio!
i7-4771 or 4770 are great i7 cpus without the premium price of the k's plus the ram is 1600mhz and cheap.
YAYVIDEOGAMES agreed have i7 4770 paired with a 1070 lol
that's a sweet gaming setup man
Great vid- I just pulled the trigger on an i7-3770k at $200 nzd on Trademe - Previous cpu is a i5 2400 so should do me for my next gpu upgrade 😊
what mobo are you using?
You know i really want to buy used but my concern is the spectre/meltdown crap... I don´t know which boards have been updated and which not against the vulnerabilities.
you can't change the clock multiplier but you can change BLCK speed. There is a vid. where a guy changed it from 100Mhz- 180Mhz gaining from 5660 up to 4,1 Ghz with slightly above 60 dC on stress(water cooling)
Good video, that count down was weird tho 😂
Hoping you do another one for over clockable cpu's! :D
i just bought a g4560 along with an h110 mobo new for 90 bucks total...works perfectly
Came here from your new top overclocking cpus. Given overclocking motherboards are 100 gbp plus it always seems cheaper to buy a second hand workstation in uk with case and psu and ram and then you can sell it on when get bored of it as a full pc!
Use cpu-world to ensure what max all-core CPU frenquency in turbo-boost instead of intel's site, wich shows "max turbo frequency" only for 1 core. e5 2640 has max turboboost 2.8GHz on all cores, not 3GHz
Last july i got Ryzen 5 1400, asus b350 and 2x4gb 2666 ram bundle for 320Eur. But i decided not to buy a new gpu since my r9 270x was enough for csgo/dota... Now i wanna play pubg/new AC, battlefield 1 and so on, but cant find any normal priced gpu..
What's the best equivalent to gtx 1060 in the uses market, for less than 300eur?
glostermeteor I'd recommend you the 1050ti as I use one myself... I play lots of BF1 on a High/Ultra mix mostly staying in the 58-67 fps range. If you can get it for a low price, don't hesitate... That's all I can tell you, hope it helps. :)
glostermeteor I decided to buy a gtx 980 sc instead of a gtx 1060 or if you don’t want nvidia go for a r9 fury both great options good luck!
the 970 is the same as the 1060 3gb and you can find it pretty cheap
Gtx 970
Thanks for the help, just checked the prices of gtx 1050ti, and the cheapest is 235Eur ... only 3 in stock... this is hilarious
Got an i7 3770 (non K) for about 115 USD great CPU for the price, but in games I can't see a difference from my old overclocked to 3.6 i7 860 (got for like 60 USD 1.5 years ago) because my HD7950 is a bottleneck, so in reality it's difficult to get a cheap and powerful enough GPU to bottleneck even i7 from 8 years ago.
At some point the gpu and DDR4 bubbles have to burst. The DDR4 bubble is totally due to opportunism and gouging as there is obviously no shortage of DDR4 as you can get it no problem. The gpu bubble is actually due to supply and demand as miners are actually buying them up by the truckloads.
christopher james I don't need to buy another gpu or system cause I've got gaming laptop with ddr4 and 1050ti for half-price, I just need another PC as a backup and test bench, so 7950 and 3770 should suffice
Does they work on q75 lga 1155
Around 5:30 he says “this CPU” and that triggered Siri to listen 😂😂😂
like the studio .nice colours
I like your picks, especially e3 1220 and e3 1270, but. What are your thoughts on e3 1230 and 1240? I got 1240 and it performs pretty well. Is it the fewer cores on 1220 that make it better for gaming?
Tech Yes City, what Do you think of the P67 for LGA 1155 i purchased an AsRock P67 Extreme 4 Gen 3 off CL for $15? Was hoping to put my i5 3470 in there once i have the rest of my components.
Thank you for the great video enjoyed seeing you in the new studio.
+Irishhellion420 Good deal. Not great, but good.
Lothaire Cliquennois thanks for the input, would you be able to elaborate on the pros or cons I should be aware of? This will be my first full build and all the knowledge I can gather the better.
