Intel 5th Generation Worth Buying?

Recon97 · Jul 30, 2014

Is Intel 5th generation i7 processors worth the money?.I have read on ark.Intel.com that the new processors will be worth every shot.

Should I wait for them?.My primary purpose is for gaming right now and the fact is that,I want to stay ahead of technology.DDR4 memories are coming to

r should I stick with 4th generation processors?.

Your suggestions will be appreciated.

If you can't wait for the new CPUs then get the current Haswell (or Ivy Bridge) CPUs. The performance increase between recent generations of CPUs have been incremental.

Due to your current CPU, only i7 Haswell-E or Broadwell CPUs are worth upgrading to. You will likely not gain much from a Broadwell or Skylake i5.

I can wait upto 1 year.What you guys think of the price of I7 5770k and I7 5930k?

I doubt the 5930K would be of any use to you so I would get the cheaper 5770K.

I am thinking the same.Buying i7 5770k but what about its price?

Joseph DeGarmo · Jul 30, 2014

The 5770k will price similarly to the 4790k. A 5820k, however, has six cores for about the same price, but the costs of the X99 motherboards and DDR4 memory modules may skyrocket. So go with the 5770k or whatever it will be called.
