So what about this Zen business?
Seems interesting.

Might just tell windows to get fucked and wait it out.
(core dumps is reason for above posts)

I have no idea,  im holding out for the the new ati graphics cards this month,  and what the new zens around the end of this year..

But i dunno......  i can't seem to get any real info on whether or not they will be better than an i5 Skylake.  Apparently the only difference is that they will have an APU and apparently for the first time, their version of Hyper Threading.

hmmmm  but BF 1  will be out before then.   And i'll most likely be crying on my old core 2 quad kekekeke. 

seriously need to upgrade, but i just keep spending my money on the business instead.  bleh

lets see what happens!

Zen is shaping up to be a competitor from what I've read, the first in about 10 years.
But competitor doesn't mean 'better', just equal (hopefully cheaper).

i[357] have in chip GPU also, Zen seems like it won't (although that's not technically dictated by the architecture, as xeon are same arch as iN & don't have GPU).

But it's all looking promising, although fucked if you can pry me away from nvidia. They might be cunts, but they're stable cunts. *shrug*

And pah, C2Q, I'm still rocking Jonty's old C2D! With a 8800GT!
Although I'm starting to notice memory ... issues. And Games are starting to stutter (that never used to). So I'm holding out for a hero... (named Zen). Just a few months, and we'll see. If they're cheaper and competitive, I'll go that way. If not, then... well...

I wanna build a VR rig this winter, but budgeting for trips, houses, and racing is kinda taking over. Plus my spare time is zooming away at the moment with a race car build and my race bike project.

Want too many things, not enough monies :/
Anyone want off hours dev work done?

[Ngati_Grim]

No thanks.

Good luck though 

[Apostrophe Spacemonkey]

After 2 years silence, Grim comes back to tell Pyro he doesn't want any off hours dev work done.


Then again, 2016 has been a pretty crazy year, nothing really surprises me anymore.

Oh, so when I thought to myself "this motherfucker looks like Lias", I shouldn't have stopped myself from calling out "Lias!"?

Also, you did it wrong. I had 7.
