The 2600K was and still is an awesome CPU.

If you get bored, overclock it to 4.8Ghz or so. :)

i don't know if i should feel bad because intel been jipping users for that long

You should feel good.
Honestly you really aren't missing anything with all the new CPU/motherboard releases.

too frugal though, it's hard :(



yea i touched on the godot game engine a little bit in op, but i do game development stuff, a workstation if you will. have it paired with a rx 480 if that matters

thanks, was thinking of ryzen 1700 tbh but i do game at 144hz/1080p so kinda of want as much frames i can get and right now with the 2600k most games hold up nicely (path of exile, c9, soul worker)


Well wait a bit, shit gonna happen the next few generations, while your 2600k still have some life in it.

Well only feel bad for the people who have upgraded pretty much each generation.
Personally i went from an Q6600 to 4790k. And next upgrade I wanna see some increase in multicore performance while keeping the top singlecore performance.

sad cuz i was using a fx 6300 since 2012

the diff using the godot engine from that cpu to a 2600k is insane. previewing scenes are so much faster (not just a couple hundred ms, but 1000+ms)

how long i missed out... makes me sad looking back, but am happy now
