I7 3770 upgrade

[suyac]

Hi everybody,

 

I want some opinions regarding an upgrade path from i7 3770 to ryzen 1600 or 1700.

Is it worth it ?

 

Thank you.

Not really, not much faster. Pointless unless you really need more cores.

Depends on what you do on the PC. If you do anything multi core powered, it'd be worth it. Unless you see a massive reduction in fps / high CPU usage, I'd stick with the 3770.

I'm still plenty happy with my 2700K (4.9 GHz OC).

3770 non k? New Ryzen chips are not much faster unless in multi-threaded tasks, i.e. video editing, rendering etc

3770k is just as good, if not better than Ryzen in games, so no upgrade needed atm.

then stay with it. There's a reason why old i5 2500k and i7 2600k are still about $150 each in the market

I m using the pc just for casual gaming and web stuff so I know that there little need for the upgrade.

But there s also an itch

 

Thanks for the feedback.

Where are you getting this info?

ryzen has comparable ipc to broadwell-E

much better in games than ivy bridge

Here:  http://cpu.userbenchmark.com/Compare/AMD-Ryzen-5-1500X-vs-Intel-Core-i7-3770/3921vs1979

I picked the Ryzen 5 1500X because it's also in 4c8t config

i7-3770k is better than R5 1500X because it can overclock further, but since there's no guarantees on overclocking potential, it's just a reference

Linked me a benchmark proving me right

 

OP has a 3770 locked and asked whether he should get a 1600 or 1700. You then proved that a ryzen chip worse than those two is superior to his.

 

 

edit: don't use this site in the future, the way they distribute points is retarded

Why would you consider those Ryzen chips to be superior? In single core tests the 3770 performed similarly. It only dropped behind by about 10% in quad core tests. This is not counting that Ryzen chips are all overclockable and leads to the average scores shown being higher than that of the 3770.

 

edit: IPC difference of Ivy Bridge and Broadwell is significant, but that doesn't directly relate to CPU performance

The 1600 is at 3.2ghz and beats the 3770 at 3.4 by 6%. What makes you think they're inferior? They actually win out in every test 

 

btw the 3770 boosts much higher than the 1600.

For content creation you totally should upgrade, my brother upgraded from the i7 3770 to the r7 1800x and his productivity on Sony Vegas, Adobe and every thing else he uses for his work as video editor gotten extremely better... now if you just game I would still hold to that i7 3770 until the Canon Lake 10nm processors come.

But OP is asking about performance, not IPC. Stock base and turbo clock speed difference shouldn't be taken into account
