11 pm sunday sound good?

2018-03-17 21:19:46 UTC  

I might be able to, maybe a bit earlier because of work though.

im gonna get back to college by like 11:00

2018-03-17 21:57:55 UTC  

wait

2018-03-17 21:58:02 UTC  

does overclocking void warranty @Wayne

2018-03-17 22:02:25 UTC  

im watching a bunch of vids on it and overclocking cpu doesnt seem to be as easy or necessary as gpu

@Bearchoyboi it is detrimental to general performance beyond just gaming framerate, and many games benefit noticeably from higher single-thread performance.

2018-03-18 00:31:50 UTC  

why are you questioning it so much

2018-03-18 00:32:02 UTC  

I OC'd my Xeons on a modded bios

2018-03-18 00:32:32 UTC  

16 cores, 32 threads at 3.6 :)

2018-03-18 00:32:49 UTC  

each CPU or both collectively?

2018-03-18 00:32:51 UTC  

mind you, that's two packages

2018-03-18 00:32:57 UTC  

collectively

2018-03-18 00:33:04 UTC  

older xeons?

2018-03-18 00:33:13 UTC  

E5 2680 v1's

2018-03-18 00:33:19 UTC  

what architecture is that again?

2018-03-18 00:33:24 UTC  

sub Ivy right?

2018-03-18 00:33:27 UTC  

I had some 2650v2's which are basically the same

2018-03-18 00:33:31 UTC  

before Ivy

2018-03-18 00:33:37 UTC  

no, those are Ivy Bridge

2018-03-18 00:33:41 UTC  

orly

2018-03-18 00:33:44 UTC  

neat

2018-03-18 00:33:56 UTC  

v2 is sandy bridge

2018-03-18 00:33:59 UTC  

I have an Ivy Bridge E i7 4820k

2018-03-18 00:34:07 UTC  

ah nice

2018-03-18 00:34:25 UTC  

yeah, the 3000 series was on the LGA 1366 boards

2018-03-18 00:34:31 UTC  

It has great single-thread and multithread, but I want more multithread for encoding

2018-03-18 00:34:33 UTC  

same with X5000 series xeons

2018-03-18 00:34:45 UTC  

the turbo boost from that generation was shit

2018-03-18 00:34:56 UTC  

I was thinking i7 8700k but I want an 8-core for the most possible versatility

2018-03-18 00:35:10 UTC  

it didn't have multi-step, and it was either all or none as far as cores go

2018-03-18 00:35:21 UTC  

so you either had all of your cores turbo boosting, or none

2018-03-18 00:35:22 UTC  

when it comes to CPU's a high single-thread performance 8-core with hyptread is pretty future proof

2018-03-18 00:35:26 UTC  

gonna last like 4 years ez

2018-03-18 00:35:27 UTC  

4th gen fixed that

2018-03-18 00:36:03 UTC  

I'm looking to upgrade to some 2670 v2's when they start retiring those and the price goes down

2018-03-18 00:36:18 UTC  

right now they're like 250 for one

2018-03-18 00:36:28 UTC  

the 2680 v1's that I got were 110 each

2018-03-18 00:36:28 UTC  

also the cool thing with an 8-core, make your primary 4-cores faster for gaming, and allocate 4 for streaming since they are under the consistent load of the encoding you have set
