I don't think 4790K is that powerful anymore. Anything below intel's 8th generation is pretty lower end regardless of gen.
They increased core count for every gen starting 8th gen and made a significant leap in perf.
Your processor would give the same perf as the lowest end ryzen.
- Wowfunhappy 6y ago> Your processor would give the same perf as the lowest end ryzen. Not for single core performance though, right? Which is what I'm looking at here.
- LegitShady 6y agoAn AMD Ryzen 7 2700x has faster single core performance than yours, maybe 5% more. Anything faster/more recent is even more. It's multicore advantage will be much more.
- winrid 6y ago2700x user here. I didn't realize how low end it's considered! I game and do all the coding things and never really wait long for games to load or code to compile...
- LegitShady 6y agoEveryone has different requirements. Depending on your resolution and required frame rate you might have get a more powerful video card that becomes bottlenecked by your cpu. But the 2700x was a good buy, in retrospect.
- winrid 6y agoYeah, I also built this machine last year. 1050TI, 64gb ram.
- LegitShady 6y agoSee I can't imagine running on a 1050ti but I only need 32gb of ram. I can't drive my monitor (5120x1440) with that video card at any reasonable rates. Everyone has different requirements.
- winrid 6y agoOops I meant 1070ti. Nice monitor!
- LegitShady 6y agocant do it on a 1070ti either, sadly. Its a samsung CRG9 and it is awesome.
- thejynxed 6y agoIt's not low-end, it is middle of the pack, given it's age, and for the price it's still a good buy for things like compiling and encoding, let alone any grand strategy/4x style of game that relies heavily on CPU multi-threading speeds.
