Regrets going from Intel to AMD?

[Twinz]

3770k @4.1ghz to 3800X (1080 Ti used in both rigs).

Very happy with the upgrade.

 

[Fyter]

You sir are correct.

I rechecked bios settings.
Cpu was on 47 multiplier but the uncore was only on 42.
I bumped the uncore to 44 and the 4770k now shows over 100 fps at all times in online play and cpu useage is around 60 - 70 %

I have a 5820K with the Asus x99-S, I would like to change that particular setting in order to fix random stuttering. Can you please tell me where specifically I can find that setting in the BIOS? Thanks!

2600K to a 3900X....no regrets

 

[Ree]

went from i7 4790 to 3600

no ragrets

 

[greatash]

2500k to r5 2600

no ragruts

 

[IvanDobskey]

6700k to a 3900x. OK, I don't really push this cpu enough to get full benefits of the upgrade. I largely did it because I had some vouchers to spend and I was bored But it's blatantly a vastly more powerful processor

 

[Copesman]

6600k to 3700x love the upgrade everthing is so much faster and smoother.

 

[Illuminist]

6600k to 3800x,to 3900x,to 3950x no rergertz

 

[gooseuk]

2500k to a 3900x zero regrets at all.

 

[oldbanana]

I had regrets going from 7700K to 1700 and sold it after a few months and spent 2 years on a 8700K.
But these days ryzen is pretty great and you should have no regrets.

I'm upgrading my machine from an Intel i7-4770k to a AMD 3900x and going to AMD for the first time. I have everything in the basket but before I click and make the purchase - I'd like to ask a few questions.

I went 9900k. My only regret was that the 10600k didn't appear for another year, or I would have gone for that instead.

 

[shiver]

4770K to 3700X here and very impressed. That being said, that also includes a change from DDR3 > DDR4 and SATA SSD > NVMe SSD

 

[IvanDobskey]

No doubt AMD currently have a superior architecture to Intel.

I've just gone amd first time since the athlon xp days last amd i had was a barton
2500k to 3600 it better not pop like the athlons did

Surely Intel would still have 4 cores at the high end if nobody moved to AMD. How can anybody regret encouraging such a change?

They would indeed, MAYBE a 6 core if you wanted to pay about 2x the cost of a 4 core.

Exactly. Intel would still be peddling quad cores for over inflated prices if it wasn't for AMD.

Yes it's ironic that if Intel had just been more reasonable with pricing and moved the technology on a bit quicker AMD without never have caught up. As it is Intel will need a leap ahead to justify going back to their high prices for incremental performance increases.

Definitely no regrets supporting competition whilst getting a fast cool PC. Looking forwards to when the real competition begins

My general recommendations have been:
Productivity: Amd 3900x
Plug n play gaming: amd 3700x or 3900x
High end setup with extensive Overclocking knowledge: 10900k with bdie

You mean high end gaming setup yeah?
