New Build - KarthXLR - 09-04-2015 So I'm helping my roommate with a new build. So far this is what I came up with: https://pcpartpicker.com/parts/partlist/ Any advice? I think I managed to find the cheapest prices on each item. Re: New Build - FlyingMongoose - 09-04-2015 (09-04-2015, 02:29 AM)Karth link Wrote: So I'm helping my roommate with a new build.

It affords a 19% CPU performance gain over the i7-4770K and 5% over the i7-4790K. There is a small minor issue with gaming that disappears when you use synthetics, but only to the tune of a couple of percentage points. For that minor hit, the package combo of processor, chipset and DDR4 should be an intrigue in the minds of Sandy Bridge (and older) owners.It's the first real jump in intel CPUs since Sandy Bridge and the almighty 2600K. If you're going for cheap though then forget it, I just think Skylake is really cool.

It's already pretty close to his limit. |
