Just to show how much RAW BRUTE power my 2500k had in single thread operations. compared to my [email protected] and my Ryzen from signature.
Btw Lowest Sandy score is with untuned ddr3 running at 1600 highest is with ddr3 at 2133 with 40 hours of timing tuning invested

Thats fine if all you do is play dx9 games. Modern games are using more than 4 cores. Not disputing the power of a 5ghz 2500k lol but they are not the best for modern gaming.

This is about 2600/2700k that are 8 thread kinda... But ST will be same as 2500k.
If i had 2600k@5ghz i would still have 1000%


should add this score of 7700k for comparison how much stuff went forward over years. Thats 25 % more give or take than sandy

Another reason not to support intel. We had no choice before but now we do. Its like they were doing it on purpose.

Sandy sucks when coupled with anything RX480 level or more powerful, compared to Skylake/Kabylake. It's minimum FPS values are massively worse.

Depends on the games you play, brah. Westmere-EP working great here with an RX 480.

Have you got a benchmark of sandy with lets say 980ti at 5ghz vs skylake at 5ghz by any chance ??
