is it recommended to change from i5 to x6? gaming wise the performance should be the same right. but if its for multitasking it should be a win for the x6 right?

Hopefully the new x6 can beat both of the Intel processors... AMD fights Intel... force Intel to lower the price of their processors..

1090T = i7 930
1055T = i5 750

anyone here dy buy x6??

nowsday proc is really hard to see which da performance...only benchmark and those multi task could tell.

buying a good proc just to OC and show off...i can said its a waste...as alot of people are doing that

ppl treat OC as hobby

yup can't blame them..
same like cars etc..
jealous maybe..

but still.. if no money and not utilize the rig.. better don't buy..

For me, I will OC to increase the performance

Me doing encoding and etc etc

sure nice with X6 extra cores..

do software nowadays fully utilize the all 6 core??

I just bought it. Currently setting up. Will post CPUz screen when I get the rig up and running.

1090T or 1055T..if the 1090T is better than then i5..i might opt to change

How much you got it? Which MB you pairing with? Thanks.

1055T. Lets see how far this baby can go when it comes to overclocking.

i got the 1055T, and pair it up with gigabyte 890GPA-UD3H motherboard, not the best board.
Forget about using stock cooling, noisy as hell, and don't bother getting a big chucky cooling when you decide to choose this gigabyte board, depending on ur casing, can be quite troublesome adjusting CPU cooling fan.
Max i get for pushing it is 3.57GHz from the stock 2.8GHz. I did it using cheap rams. Beyond this is unstable for me. Get better rams if you want to overclock over 3.5GHz mark

for me 3.5ghz-3.6ghz x6 stable already are winner lol..found several pic people at 4.2ghz though!!

can't wait official benchies..

That is why I didn't choose this board. The build-in graphics card is a waste. The only USB3 motherboard from Gigabyte that I can find is the 770. The cooler is definitely noisy. Will have to change that next.

how much you got the board and the processor? thanks

I think should be around RM1k+

any cheap 770 785g can support it so any official revs up for power consumptions?
