8 core 16 thread to a 6 core 12 thread.


On what planet is that an upgrade?

/E I suppose the upgrade to DDR4 and the gaming performance difference is a thing, I would argue it's certainly NOT worth the $380 processor, $200 motherboard, and $160 for 16GB way overpriced DDR 4. At least not compared to what you have now.


I have DDR4 already.

I think the vast majority of you fail to realize that this chip pulls close to 300-400 watts with my OC...

Doubt that CPU has any gaming performance issues even with your resolution.

My room is a furnace cause of it. Also faster IPCs help with SLI in my case.
