2500 is still an ok CPU, moderate to light gaming of older titles

2019-12-30 02:09:07 UTC  

yeah, I only play 2 games at most anyways

2019-12-30 02:09:36 UTC  

I'll probably end up getting an i7 3770k and OCing that

2019-12-30 02:09:43 UTC  

im the same though since im just running an i5 6600k and 1060, so just one step above ya

2019-12-30 02:09:49 UTC  

aince they're cheap and fit in my motherboard

2019-12-30 02:09:49 UTC  

what about a 4790k?

2019-12-30 02:09:57 UTC  

@«Hellhound» different socket

2019-12-30 02:10:06 UTC  

I'll have to spend more and get a new mobo

2019-12-30 02:10:16 UTC  

I'm a casual gamer anyways

2019-12-30 02:10:42 UTC  

so no need to spend so much

2019-12-30 02:11:11 UTC  

GPU would prolly be the one higher on your list of priorities lmao

2019-12-30 02:11:25 UTC  

I've heard the 3770k can last pretty long even after OCing anyways, my friend has had one at 4.4ghz for 6 years now

2019-12-30 02:11:26 UTC  

but yeah, solid unit overall for low mid gaming

2019-12-30 02:11:39 UTC  

Iirc 3770k is Solder

2019-12-30 02:12:04 UTC  

solder?

2019-12-30 02:13:52 UTC  

The Integrated Heat Spreader (the metal bit you see that has the information) is soldered to the Die (actual silicon)

2019-12-30 02:14:31 UTC  

oh damn

2019-12-30 02:14:32 UTC  

it isnt

2019-12-30 02:14:42 UTC  

What's your cooler?

2019-12-30 02:15:05 UTC  

If you're planning to OC, get a good cooler for the 3770k

2019-12-30 02:15:48 UTC  

since most likely that TIM (thermal interface material, tldr thermal paste) between the die and IHS might be crusty

2019-12-30 02:15:49 UTC  

My current one is stock for the prebuilt, but I'm ordering a budget cooler that a couple of my friends tested from aliexpress called the snowman t5

2019-12-30 02:15:52 UTC  

since its years old

2019-12-30 02:15:57 UTC  

Snowman is a good cooler

2019-12-30 02:16:09 UTC  

its been making the rounds as a good budget cooler

2019-12-30 02:16:13 UTC  

also

2019-12-30 02:16:23 UTC  

look at this cooler if you still havent ordered

2019-12-30 02:16:50 UTC  

ok

Scythe Fuma 2

2019-12-30 02:18:28 UTC  

Basically a more accessible version of a Noctua NH-D15

2019-12-30 02:18:49 UTC  

And better ram clearance

2019-12-30 02:19:38 UTC  

cool, looks nice too

2019-12-30 02:20:02 UTC  

I'll check it out for the build I'm gonna do later on

2019-12-30 02:20:26 UTC  

depends on your color coordination for your build tho

2019-12-30 02:20:36 UTC  

planning to change mine out since it rests on the glass

2019-12-30 02:20:49 UTC  

also,a its a fatass cooler

2019-12-30 02:21:46 UTC  

yeah, I'll probably end up placing it in a more mid-range build for one of my family members who does editing

2019-12-30 02:21:57 UTC  

Ryzen is a good choice

2019-12-30 02:22:11 UTC  

For production workload
