Sweepr, you post page after page of product advertisements with little relevance to Skylake, outside the simple fact that the latest uarch is in a particular product. Are you commercially involved in advertising or what is the point here?
Everyone saying he was pushing too much volts though that chip, remember that the vccin is not the vcore.
Actual vcore might be 1.2 or so, afaik it is not clear yet how big the difference is.
Apples and oranges. Hardware Canucks uses DDR3 1866 Cas 11 and DDR4 2666 CAS 13(!). That is not even close. Hothardware and PcPer don't even post CAS latency under test system setup so god knows what they are testing. There are plenty of reviews where the memory difference between Haswell /...
Yes you are right being skeptical. That's also why I said "assume", there is no guaranteed upgrade path of course. In any case socket 1150 is on the way out and on an older chipset. I would always wait to see what the newer stuff is like before making the decision to buy.
The problem is that you will have to wait for Skylake release and prices to stabilize, DDR4 to come down etc. However you can assume that socket 1151 will last for a while and offer more upgrade paths in the future. And you get a newer platform with skylake anyway, Z100 etc.
So unless you...
A track record of not delivering? You must have forgotten A64. Which I can imagine in your case, Intel had to bend over and take it pretty deep back then.
LOL what?
I don't speak Chinese but going from the title of the article on last page it's about Skylake. So what price are you relating this 'inflation' to?
Some good conspiracy theories.
Every company is naturally trying to expand market share, there is no evil masterplan to kill a specific competitor all of a sudden.
I owned an E8600 that did 4.4Ghz on air. And a Q6600 that did close to 4Ghz on water.
Choices are not the same as actual limitations. I bet that if Intel wanted to, they could cram the space now used for IGP with another 8 cores just to name something. Or improve heat transfer to the IHS for...
Yes it's obvious priorities have shifted from increasing raw performance, to an increase of performance at reduced power draw. Which is a great achievement in itself. no doubt, but in the end no great leaps forward were made. I mean I haven't even upgraded my 4.1Ghz W3570 on socket 1366 from...
How different are the days of Broadwell and Skylake release, compared to the first Core 2 generations where leaks hit you in the face left and right. Even now after Broadwell is listed in webshops and the official reviews have been published, we're still waiting for overclocking numbers. I will...
