I'm inheriting an i7-4960X mobo and 32GB of 1600mhz cas 8 from a friend, for free. It's a nice upgrade from my 3770K. But honestly I don't know what to do with it. I'm breaking about even where gaming is concerned, but what to do with the extra threads?
He upgraded to E5-2690 v2 with 64gb of ecc. He runs lots of virtual machines to help him cheat at some browser game he loves. Either way, I'm not sure what to do, aside from benchmarking. But I only have a 390X, although I have a 2nd one being shipped at the moment. But I'm curious what kind of tasks I could try to put the cores under load?
