Just wanted to know how many gamers out there would go for Ryzen 1800x considering that stability problem will be solved by updates and future games are developing to use multicore . And most importantly for 1080p gaming.

Hello, I own an i5 6400, GTX 970 on Intel B150 (budged build from last year).I got money to upgrade both cpu and gpu (gpu cause bottle neck).I wanted to buy the i7 7700k.I checked Intel's site and it says that the Kaby Lake CPU is compatible with the Intel B150 motherboard.The CPU is overclockable but the motherboard doesn't have the potential CPU overclock option, now I need help to know if I'm still gonna be able to buy and use it on the current mobo cause if not, I'd have to buy another motherboard and won't have money for the GPU I wanted to buy. (I do not want to overclock the CPU if I bought it, I'd be fine running it on the stock settings)

Ok so im planning a budget build for someone, and i've come across a compatibility warning on PCPartpicker for my ram selection.. The part list is - https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/jtRdf8 Just wondering is the RAM compatibility note is actually going to be an issue, and if so, what RAM i should use instead... Thanks

OK So here is my current situation. I currently have a Intel Core i5-4690K Devil's Canyon CPU and been looking to upgrade. Here is my dilemma, I cant decide what CPU would be better for gaming.And I've been wondering should i upgrade now or later and to what. Currently the contenders are that as follow(the following 1600x and 1400x is just estimated projections that i got from other sites, So take them with a grain of salt): Brand| Core |Model |core/threads | Speeds |Price AMD Ryzen 7 1700x 8/16 3.4GHz to 3.8GHz $329.99 AMD Ryzen 5 1600x 6/12 3.3GHz to 3.8GHz $259.99 AMD Ryzen 5 1400x 4/8 3.5GHz to 3.9GHz $199.99 Intel i7-7700K Kaby Lake 8/8 4.2GHz to 4.5GHz $299.99 Intel i5-7600K Kaby Lake 4/4 3.8GHz to 4.2Ghz $199.99

I was wondering which CPU would be better for gaming I've been looking at the i5 7600, i5 7600k, and the i7 7700 I don't do any professional work other than light photoshop work and gaming on a 1080p monitor. I have an MSI r9 380 4g currently but would like to eventually get a 1070 so I wasn't sure of a bottle neck of the i5s

Due to the recent Ryzen launch what will happen to the price of the Kaby Lake processors, specifically the intel i5 7600k?

GRRRRR Okay, Guys i'm new here this is my first post, But i have been watching linus since his NCIX days. I need some help here pronto! My damn cat wont stop jumping on my new tower i just built. I didn't mind it before with my old PC because it was getting to the point to where I no longer cared about it anymore lol, but my new tower is in the gloss black finished s340 case and i'm afraid he is going to scratch it. Not to mention about 50% of his jumps onto my PC he hits the power button and my PC starts to shut down during a gaming session. This is become a pretty serious problem actually, he will inadvertently shut my PC off at least 4-5 times a night. So if anyone could be so kind and share with me ways you keep your cat off your tower, PLEASE let me know. THANKS! :):)

Source: http://www.microcenter.com/category/4294966995,4294964566/Intel-Processors Over at Microcenter the prices of many Intel CPUs seem to have been cut a bit, most likely because of Ryzen, but if you ask me, it doesn't seem to be enough. Why? Let me show you: i7 6950x Original price: $1899.99 New price: $1599.99 i7 6900k Original price: $1199.99 New price: $999.99 i7 6850k Original price: $699.99 New price: $549.99 i7 6800k Original price: $499.99 New price: $359.99 i7 5820k Original price: $419.99 New price $319.99 i7 7700k Original price: $379.99 New price: $299.99 i7 6700k Original price: $399.99 New price: $259.99 i5 7600k Original price: $269.99 New price: $199.99 i5 6600k Original price: $269.99 New price: $179.99 Now some of these price cuts won't be super noticeable; the new prices for the 6950x, 6900k, 6850k, and maybe the 6800k aren't that large, especially considering the prices of Ryzen CPUs, but some of the others are kinda noticeable. The 6700k is now around the same price that an i5 7600k would cost you and the 6600k now costs the same as the 7350k would've cost you. However, I still don't believe these are enough for Intel. The 1800x is very similar in performance to the 6900k yet it's still exactly half the price (fine, it's half a cent under half the price of the 6900k, does it really matter?). The 6850k is still more expensive than the obviously better 1800x, and the 6800k is still slightly more than the better 1700 and the 5820k is only barely under the 1700. The quad core i7s and i5s might be a good deal, but once the AMD Ryzen 5 SKUs launch they'll be in trouble. While these price cuts might make some of Intel's CPUs attractive, for the most part I think Ryzen still has stole all the thunder. I imagine that once Ryzen launches and goes on sale Intel will have to react much more strongly, at the very least with its HEDT CPUs.

Kaby Lake processor on Skylake motherboard BIOS update
Guest posted a topic in CPUs, Motherboards, and Memory
BIOS - Basic Input Output System Features to look out if you want to use a Skylake motherboard on a Kaby Lake processor Skylake motherboard chipset: (if you see this in your motherboard it means it is a Skylake board and was originally designed to work with Skylake processors) Z170 (allows overclocking), 4 DIMM slots, SATA RAID Q170, 4 DIMM slots, SATA RAID H170, 4 DIMM slots, SATA RAID B150, 4 DIMM slots H110, 2 DIMM slots DIMM slots refer to how many sticks of RAM the chipset can support. Kaby Lake processors: (here are list of Kaby Lake processors, desktop only) K at the end - allows overclocking T at the end - lower powered (low TDP), basically consumes less power at a small decrease in performance E at the end - embedded processor, usually means they are stuck into the motherboard Intel Core i7 (4 cores 8 threads) i7-7700K i7-7700 i7-7700T Intel Core i5 (4 cores 4 threads) i5-7600k i5-7600 i5-7600T i5-7500 i5-7500T i5-7400 i5-7400T Intel Core i3 (2 cores 4 threads) i3-7350K i3-7320 i3-7300 i3-7300T i3-7100 i3-7100T i3-7101E i3-7101TE Pentium (2 cores 4 threads) G4620 G4600 G4600T G4560 G4560T Celeron (2 cores 2 threads) G3950 G3930 G3930T Great, now if you can confirm you have one of the item above (or planning to get one) then you need to know that Skylake motherboard won't work without a motherboard BIOS update to support Kaby Lake CPU. Now to update motherboard you need to gain access to BIOS of the motherboard. Most of the board will not allow you to do that without the matching CPU even if Kaby Lake has the same socket as Skylake. Then what to do? Fortunately some motherboards allow users to update BIOS without needing a CPU at all. Each of them are named differently so here is a list of it. (just look for these features when buying motherboard) Gigabyte: Q-Flash Plus (note the Plus, not regular Q-Flash) Asus: USB Bios Flashback (guide is for X99 chipset but should work with Z170 chipset: http://event.asus.com/2012/mb/USB_BIOS_Flashback_GUIDE/) MSI: BIOS Flashback+ ASRock: No info. Instant Flash still requires you to get into the BIOS. (http://www.asrock.com/support/BIOSUI.asp?cat=BIOS8). Contact them here (http://www.asrock.com/support/index.asp?cat=RMA) EVGA: You can not do that but they offer a service (http://www.evga.com/support/faq/afmviewfaq.aspx?faqid=59679&topicid=0) SuperMicro: No info, but they offer a service (https://www.supermicro.com/support/rma/rma_bios.cfm) ECS: You can not do that most likely. eBLU still requires to even have access to OS (http://www.ecs.com.tw/extra/eblu/) If your motherboard does not have the feature mentioned then you need to get a Skylake processor to update BIOS. NOTE: This only needed if your BIOS is not updated to use with Kaby Lake processor. Hope this help. (not sure if it should be in Guides category or CPU category) -
I have not yet decided on what motherboard + CPU + ram combination to get yet. I use a 1080p monitor (1600 x 900) that is 60hz, and I have a GTX 1060, or a RX 480 on hand at the moment. All that being said, Would the i7 bring me better ingame performance over the Ryzen chip, or is the lower clock speeds not hindering my performance in the 8 core Ryzen chip? Let's decide using the following (I want to hear your opinions on which is better for my specific needs, rather than price to performance, or general usage rather than gaming + streaming) -Which CPU is better for playing current, and future games? -Which CPU is going to be cheaper to upgrade from in the future? -Which CPU is going to give me better streaming performance, and if so, will it hinder my games frame rate below my monitors refresh rate (60FPS)? I use OBS to stream, and I have heard little about gaming performance, and actual benchmarks showing how it compares to the 4 core i7 in terms of per core performance, instead I have heard it is simply faster in multi threaded.

I want to run pcsx2 and dolphin at full 60 fps and also would like to run older titles such as world at War. I have a ps4 to run newer games but that would be a plus if I could run those too. I'm stuck between which processor to buy, a 7th gen pentium, i3 7100 or should I just go ahead and get a i5 7500. I'm trying to stick to a 400-550 budget so I don't know if I should buy a 4gb rx 480 for 180$ and i5 7500 because that takes up alot of my budget. Any feedback is appreciated. I've also been under the impression that emulators are heavy on cpu so Idk if I should spend less on the gpu and more the gpu. Thanks

source: http://www.hardocp.com/article/2017/01/19/intel_kaby_lake_i77700k_cpu_delid_relid_results I saw PCPer's podcast this morning and there was a topic in there that showed something interesting what happens if you delid a 7700K and replace the TIM that Intel put there with some Coollaboratory Liquid Ultra well ... they got a 23 deg C decrease in package temp, that's huge! and it appears that it's not because of the TIM, but the distance between the IHS and the silicon die - this was pointed out in some other Anand discussions --- one other thing PCPer pointed out is that Intel's people said that the TIM needs replacement anyways I suspect this won't be a problem for people who don't OC their chips to the limits nor for the people who buy regular non K CPUs, at least not for couple of years the TIM will crack eventually and will need replacement that's a huge deal

Yo what's up? I'm thinking about going with a new kaby lake processor for my first gaming PC but through further research have found that the b150 and h110 mobos (the only ones I can afford) don't have the required bios update. Does anyone know of a 60-70$ mobo that will support kaby lake out of the box?

Hi there! I am currently running a i5-4670k @ 4.2Ghz on a MSI Z87-GD65 motherboard along with a Asus GTX 1080 at around 1.9Ghz. 16GB of ram and a 120gb Samsung SSD. My question is, is it worth upgrading to the new Kaby Lake CPU? Preferably the i7. I play mostly planet coaster, and occasionally Battlefield one. Would I see much improvement in my game play? I am using the 2560x1440p asus ROG monitor at 144hz. I usually get around 60-80fps. As my parks get bigger in planet coaster, my FPS starts to drop quite a bit. I'm thinking it's my CPU, but just want to make sure.

I just exchanged my 7600k for a 7700k. When I pop it into the socket, will I have to reinstall Windows? Also, I made a few minor UFEI settings changes on my motherboard during its use with the 7600k (but no over clocking of CPU or RAM at all). Should I reset it back to default before plugging in the new CPU, or do those settings not matter?

I am overclocking my i7-7700k on a gigabyte z270 mini itx wifi board. I just used the preset bios to "upgrade" my chip to i7 7700k 5ghz auto. After giving the cpu 1.41volts it worked! cineabenchg scores are great. I wanted to make sure I wouldn't overheat so I began a ROG stress test. After 7mins of running at 5000.1mhz it began to slip down to 2500mhz every few seconds. the process kept happening so I shut down the test. Temps were well within limit when this happened. Maybe its my power supply? I have 430 watts EVGA. thanks!
