| Barkley said: After 7 years of faithful service it's finally time to retire the i5-4670k. Just waiting for my new parts to arrive, was a relatively cheap upgrade. My new build: Motherboard - ASRock B550M Pro 4 My i5-4670k was overclocked to 4.5ghz, so while the new Ryzen will destroy it in anything using more than 4 threads I'm not entirely sure about single-thread performance which was still a beast... hopefully a bit better mainly for emulation sake. Once games on PC start taking better advantage of higher than SATA speeds I'll shove a gen 4 NVME ssd in there. Probably sometime next year with DirectStorage coming out then. Even in 2020 though, the only game I ever played that the i5-4670k (OC'd) couldn't manage 60fps in was the latest Assassin's Creed games (origins onwards) which dipped to 45. Amazing how long it lasted. |
Nice build you got yourself.
As an owner of an Intel i5-4670K myself, I can really see why you wanted an upgrade.
Please excuse my bad English.
Currently gaming on a PC with an i5-4670k@stock (for now), 16Gb RAM 1600 MHz and a GTX 1070
