2 more weeks until I get my hands on evga x99 micro and 5820k, really can't wait

 

[X99Gary]

For those of us who ordered both the Rampage V and 5960x late on 29th (10pm) and consequently will probably have to wait a little longer, I think it's only fair that Gibbo let 8 Pack cherry pick our processors for us

new gaming system

just bought this system with the 5930k in it . Looking forward to it
"Titan Typhoon" Intel Core i7 5930K @ 3.8GHz OC Six Core Haswell-E Nvidia SLI Gaming PC £740.00

 

[Ayahuasca]

Not a bad price that, my 3770k gtx 780 system cost me around that a year and a half ago and I built it from scratch.

 

[Orangey]

£740??? Better re-calculate

Very nice that they have landed. Time to spec an 8.1 & esxi rig

Shame no onboard SD for esxi install

How did you get it for £740?

He didn't.

Really can't decide whether the 5930k's price is worth it over the 5820k for the extra potential overclocking headroom.

 

[subbytna]

It's not £740....It's just shy of £1,500 for a 3.8 overclock machine.

Unless you're using 3 cards for tri sli or tri fire then I see no reason not to get the 5820K.

just to confirm (as possible adopter)

Gaming Only:
the 6 core & 8 Core chips technically are no better than say a i7 3770k unless your pushing tri/qaud GPU's
because games do not utilise quad-core properly in most cases. & the faster less cores would better in this case

also the 28 lanes equates to 2 way 16x & 8x or 3 way 8x
