CPU's on the Horizon

[Suarez7]

I'll probably be updating my rig again within the year, what CPU's are next on the list, I haven't kept up to date with these at all since buying my 3770k.

 

[almighty15]

What you got your 3770k clocked too?

 

[Suarez7]

4.6

 

[smilertoo]

There's nothing worth upgrading to at the moment from that.

What are you doing out of the FIFA thread? return!

As said above the 3770k is still a beast of a gaming CPU, no reason to think about upgrading really.

4.6ghz is a good OC too.

 

[Suarez7]

So there is nothing of real worth coming out this year, or what we know anyway so far?

 

[Uncle_Gravy]

You've got no reason to upgrade that CPU for a long while buddy.

Isn't haswell-e coming out later this year?
fancy an 8 core Suarez?

This is the only interesting thing coming out, but its going to be a niche buy and probably make no difference to most gaming rigs.

I am looking forward to Kaapstag benching one with whatever 4 card setup is available at the time

So kind of on topic if there is nothing exciting coming up then it's it worth going from my 4.6 3750k to a 3770k? I'm running r290's in crossfire. I'd held off for a big upgrade but since that involves new mobo cooler etc then I might as well just grab a 3770k

Sounds interesting, the -e chips use quad channel RAM as well don't they? I know it doesn't make much difference but it sounds better

A 3770k would help in a few games, bf3/4, and crysis 3 being ones i know from making the same move.

I'm waiting to see what Skylake will offer, it's going to be more of an energy saving processor I believe so my hopes aren't too great.

Any news on when we are likely to see it in 2015?

 

[wazza300]

idk,it will be more powerfull though and promises ddr4 and sata express,thats what im waiting for next
