ShaneB posted:So is there any word on whether or not the new CPUs will work on the previous generation of motherboard? New CPUs won't work in Z87, only old Haswells. Everything LGA1150 will work in Z97, up until and including Broadwell. Skylake is going to be LGA1151 or something I believe.

So we're only seeing new overclocking chipsets for the time being right? there isn't a replacement for B85/H87 in the immediate future? So I guess it would follow that non overclocking refresh CPUs should work fine in the older chipsets?

should it do badly with super pi? that factory cooler is hardcore. I just ran superpi for the first time (never heard of it) and got 8.078, which is 183rd of all submitted times. Pretty feel-good moment considering a lot of the top scores are special cases. Don't really know what it proves however

Alereon posted:Around 41 seconds, so yeah like 5X what a current CPU would get. Compare to around 15 seconds for a Core 2 CPU at the same clockspeed, or around 18 seconds at more typical clockspeeds. C2D at 3.45Ghz is drat fast and no models released that high either. I ran SuperPi with the PD-945 and I got 38s. Yeah its slow by todays standards but I can do pretty much all web stuff including 1080p video stream and decode (GPU assisted or not it works). Plus I can actually play some SC2:HotS at ultra settings at 1080p. I mean the machine isn't worth putting in the dumpster. Shaocaholica fucked around with this message at 06:44 on May 7, 2014 |

I got very close to the same superpi times on a basic Haswell i3 the other day that I did on an old 4.2ghz i7 920 chip. The single-threaded performance on the newer chips is just crazy, although without factoring in SSDs or something there's not really any noticeable differences between them in day to day usage.

 Hey guys the SuperPI benchmark database is over here so you can look up any combination CPU and clockspeed you might want to see or post any interesting scores you have. It's not very helpful to post them here.

 The things you can accomplish with fixed TIM. Imagine any Haswell running at 4.4 ghz from the factory on the stock cooler. lol In fact, it's just nice to know that every one is simply capable of 4.4 ghz from the factory at presumably not-too-high factory esque voltages. I didn't think I'd be in the market for another, but if it is indeed capable of that with some left on the table that is very appealing.

ASUS ROG motherboard + 4690K + watercooling: good times ahead, stable 5+ GHz should be attainable. And someone will indubitably apply liquid nitrogen to a 4790K to smash your paltry SuperPI times.

The non-K will work for sure, since Intel didn't update the Q87 chipset. That's the high-end business chipset, and since they've refreshed the Haswell Xeons, it makes sense that they'd work in the matching chipset.

Speaking of -K Intels - would it be prudent to go to faster RAM if I want to overclock? Currently I have 4 x 2GB PC12800 (so, 1333 mHz) at 9-9-9-24. This is for a 4670K.

Again though, if you are currently running at 1600Mhz and (or are able to bump up to that) and are happy with 8GB of RAM, there is no compelling reason to upgrade. Below DDR3-1600 an upgrade is strongly recommended because you start seeing things like dropped frames during high quality HD video playback.

Is it? I could swear that the BIOS said 1333 and HWInfo is telling me both (if I'm reading it correctly). Is it just underclocked right now?
