Thank you for participating,

There is no such thing as i5 8700k, its either i5 8600k or i7 8700k

[ImNotThere]

2500U too :P

[FlappyBoobs]

For home (games) an i5 3570k running at 4.2Ghz. Also still running a 16:10 1680x1050 monitor...so very old in tech terms but I get 60fps in BF5 on a 1060 so it's more than okay for me.

 

For work a Xeon W-2125

2700X

[Mister Woof]

Nah, just wanted to know what a client said to me was true. 

"The rich uses i9 9900k only poor people like you 'he meant me' use ryzen 2700x" 

I'm using 2600 for my office work.

Yeah that's honestly one of the most stupid things I have head. You buy the CPU you can afford and for what you need. If I'm just going to game I don't need an i9 9900k no matter how much money I have to blow. It doesn't make sense for me to get anything more than an i7 8700k or Ryzen 2700x. You go for Intel i9s when your workload actually benefits and other times you go for Ryzen threadripper whe you'll benefit more. The two architects of the chips are so different from one another that certain programs may do better or worse when comparing chips.

Sounds humble. I like him. /sarcasm

Anyone running more than a dual core really has no clue what's going on in the world and has been brainwashed to think cores really matter.. 

 

 

What a joke..

Haswell

[Sovek]

And this right here is why the customer is not always right. Would I buy an i9 if I had money to blow? probably not. Depends on my use really.

He's the poor one. Z390 is a mainstream platform, made for the proletariat. The rich people use LGA3647 or SP3, with CPUs like the 3175X and 64 core Epycs.
