Intel Pentium 20 anniversary edition- Thumbs up!

[mika]

So I just read the Review on 3d-guru and iam starting to like the fact that Intel is pricing there Cpus more aggressively to compete with Amd! I might have to pick one of these puppies up to play around with it!
Its a dual-core cpu but overclocking they managed to hit 4.8 ghz and at the speed it competes really well with the Mid-range Cpus currently in the market,the best thing about it is the price! At $80 dollars Amd will have hard time to beat this thing, Good for you Intel! And this is coming from a Fx 9370 owner.

Thoughts?

Iam just a little confused what Socket this will fit in, Z87 and Z97?........ So you need a decent Motherboard with a decent cooler and your in buissness! I also wonder how games will play on a dual-core cpu, this schould be interesting to say the least.

Lets not get into this right now. I dont want a Vs thread going on. We all know a $80 dollar cpu is not gonna beat a $180 dollar cpu. So what if it wins in 1 benchmark, what about Cinbench does it beat the 8350 in cinbench>? I think not. Moving on now please.......

I dont think this Cpu can beat the 8350, maybe in Value like you said but in any other test I dont see it happening.

Complete Bs! I do not belive these benchmarks at all! a 80 dollar cpu isnt gonna push more fps then a 180 dollar cpu, plus i love the fact how they just put all Intel cpus on top without overclocking the 8350 at all, completle BS! See thats what happens when you have a 1-sided review, you cant pick sides, you either overclock all cpus or you run em at stock clocks. You can keep these kind of benchmarks for urself thanks but no thanks.

its overclocked to nearly 5ghz i would believe it

most games rely heavily on 1-2 thread

Ive seen a review with my own eyes 3570k vs 8350 both oc to 5ghz 8350 won half games and 3570 k won the other half, this means the new intel cpu can beat both the 8350 and the 3570k and according to the list you posted the 3570k came out ahead so this means its NOT valid.At least the guy who did the benchmark i trust and know he didnt pull any sides for any test, used same gpus and settings...... 8350 can beat 3570 k and mult threaded apps, beats it at some games and looses in some games, your benchmark shows it in last place-Not valid sorry.

Also depends what resolutions they are testing at, anything thats over 1600 is so gpu limited it woudnt even make sence to test. With Intel coming out on top with multi-gpu situations only, in single gpu tests this is NOT going to happen. And not all games rely on 1-2 threads, take Battlefield 3,4. Crysis games as well..... Show me some tests with intel pentium wining in these games then we can talk, all old games only run on 1-2 threads but thats the past, games will not be like this much longer dont worry.

When I brought the comparison up I was specifically referring to Microsoft FSX. It has extremely limited multi thread capability. From experience, my old i3 laptop runs right at the speed of my 8350.

Start playing newer, multi-threaded games and it is a different story.

The single threaded performance of this $80 chip looks to be close to the single threaded performance of the big dog intels. For a single thread heavy program I might be pleasantly surprised. I can build the whole pc and have it running for less than $500 bucks so Its worth trying

I use to be into Fsx heavily, That game depands heavily on Nvidia cards and Intel cpus I agree with this 100%.And iam not trying to be a ♥♥♥♥ here either iam actaully phrasing Intel for a job well done and I own a Fx 9370 which is basicly a overclocked 8350.

Single threaded performance is pretty important in gaming. I checked CPU use in games that use 3-4 cores and only one core was mostly being used. The others hardly had any activity. lol

[mika]

I agree with that.
