There's something clearly wrong with that video because none of the games have crashed and the load times are short.
Not if the board only supports 2133 as i have seen. I know the memory will default to max allowed though
Yeah, sure.... Whatever you say. It's about as exciting as overclocking a desktop Kabini. And the results are similarly futile IMO -- the majority of overclockers would focus on using better chips to start with (not dual cores).
The time that happen(Overclockable Core i3s), Intel will say good bye to Core i5 sales.
They should at least give the i3 a little Turbo.
The point of turbo is (mostly) to allow for cores to clock higher when fewer of them are used. It makes sense to have turbo on 4+ core chips, but I don't see a lot of point in clocking i3's 1-200mhz higher when you're only using one core, because let's be honest, how often does that actually happen?
Turbo isn't only for one core, though.
Turbo is for light loads. It can involve anything from one to all cores. The boost on multiple cores can be considerably more than 200mhz.
For example, an I7-4790:
3600 MHz base
Turbo frequency:
3800 MHz (4 cores)
3900 MHz (3 cores)
4000 MHz (1 or 2 cores)
The time that happen(Overclockable Core i3s), Intel will say good bye to Core i5 sales.
A light load wouldn't need a turbo boost, unless it's because 1 or 2 cores are only being used heavily, and the rest are not. On a 2 core processor, a light load is much harder to happen at a time where 1 core is being pushed and needs turbo on.

Well anyway, this is what Intel says about TB 2.0:

Are you saying we only really need 2 cores?
Nope, im saying people will chose to buy the cheaper Core i3 and OC than get the more expensive lower clocked Quad core Core i5.

The point is that it varies based on workload. With only 2 cores, they can simply clock it to what it can handle right from the get go. Though I'm sure they keep that clock lower simply because it's a lower in product.
While there may be a few more i3 purchases, I'd bet most people buying i5's now would still buy i5's. If they wanted to OC, they'd still likely buy the i5 and OC it. The i5 is still a superior CPU, regardless of the i3's ability to OC or not.

Cheap means cheap as possible not expensive so cheapest card. Lowest price card i can get away with! lol
Gtx950 is a solid option under $150.No card comes close to it in value vs performance especially with the recent price drop.2gb vram should be plenty for 1680*1050.
Seams your blue glasses are out of focus,
We are not talking about all the boards, we are talking specifically about that particular $240 SuperMicro board that a single guy have managed to OC the Core i3 and he doesnt even say how he did it. And then ShintaiDK calls us desperate and you are talking about goalposts when the original context was about "extremely limited" and "extra cost" ??
And here come all the less expensive boards that can overclock non-K Skylake CPU's. I saw this coming, why didn't you?

I guess Intel wants that last 2% from AMD.

You're kidding me, right? You can buy a 2GB R9 380 for about $139 rebate -- and that card wallops the 950 by a very wide margin. A 380 is strong enough for 1440p gaming on most games, so 1050 would be silky smooth.
