I’m still on a 10700k and skipped the whole Alderlake / Rapterlake / Raptorlake Refresh LGA 1700 platform. Just wondering how many Intel users out there also completely skipped the current platform and are waiting on what’s next in 2024.
I mostly just game at 4K 60fps and so far for the games I play my system is still holding up really well (paired with my rtx 3090). How about you guys?
I upgraded from 8700k and I don’t want to upgrade but my pc was already asking for performance in my current work. I felt like I’m already losing money because of it so I upgraded to something I can replace in a year or two (13700 paired with b760) both are cheap and way faster. I practically saved 60% of time vs my old system. Less of a headache and more free time. Know your reasons for upgrading.
I am typing this post on my 2500K, and that is still my “fastest” desktop PC. :o
Yeah, me. I’m on a 10500 and is planning to go to a 7800x3d/15700/AMD’s new 8000 series cpus. Depends which one gives the best bang for the buck. This 10500 has served me well, and can give a solid 140fps on 1080p.
I had 10700, 10850 and then 12600 and 12600 was much much better than even 10850, it noticeable even in windows.
I’m still on the 9900k and waiting for 15 gen
Obviously yes. Heck, this subreddit still sees a lot of people on 4th-8th gen asking for upgrade advice.
I’m using a I-9900K with 24 gigs of RAM which is running a donated gtx1070 because I had my two 1080p eyes thrown out the window with the rest of my PC when my last landlord broke into my unit while I was out and through all my stuff out the window the day after I paid him rent. The police weren’t able to prove that he did it although he suffered from PTSD as a ex veteran. I don’t even know how I would feel about charging him with it anyways. It runs at works and I’ll be upgrading my system soon. The kicker to the story is that I had just replaced my previously stolen i7 8700k paired with two GTX 980 TI golden editions. I spent a couple thousand dollars on computer parts that were either stolen or destroyed by others. I don’t know if I can justify spending another three to five grand on another rig just so I can play the latest update of Minecraft. 😅
9900k over here,… still happy.
Yep, still a 9900k here, paired with a 3090 like yours and having similar results. Easy 1440 at 100+ fps in pretty much everything. My index pulls 100+ fps for me in iRacing, no need to upgrade at this point.
I didn’t. I though I would but presented with an irresistible deal, I couldn’t pass it up lol
I was on Westmere with an X5670. So, I skipped Sandy Bridge, Ivy Bridge, Haswell, Broadwell, Skylake, Kaby Lake, Coffee Lake, and Rocket Lake. I now have a i9 12900k.
I am on 10850k and 4080… looking to get 7800x3d, but could wait until next gen arrives… then buy 7800x3d, skip that gen, then buy the next one.
Yeah, 1440p 165fps with a 4070ti.
i9-9900K 5.1/4.8 + super tuned 32gb 4266c16 33ns latency. Will slap 99% of base zen3 setups in games and overall snappiness. Good enough for years to come.
Yeah I did skip some gens, got a 3rd gen i5 3570k geezer that has been holding back my 3060ti for 3y already, had a 660ti before that… well cant complain much as I play mostly story driven games and some non competitive fps and hes been holding his ground at 1080p 60fps even in stalkers gamma modpack.
