The last few generations were plagued not only by heat output issues, poor pricing, and underwhelming performance in all but gaming, but also suffered irreparable manufacturing defects. The new lineup is essentially more of the same.
I always try to buy the better product, when given a choice, and it’ll take a lot of convincing me to consider this

This chip is manufactured by TSMC, so that'd be on them.
4 7 ReplyIntel QA failing to audit third party suppliers properly is Intel's fault.
20 1 ReplyYou don't buy from TSMC, but from Intel. Also, AMD also uses TSMC, they didn't have such problems recently.
7 0 ReplyIntel is the architect, TSMC does the building, and they're definitely building to plan. Thus, your leaky roof is the fault of the architect who wasn't really considering the existence of rain when designing the house.

2 0 ReplyI upgraded my gaming PC from an 4th gen i7 4770 last year. And mostly to get a better GPU. The CPU rarely was the bottleneck

Im on fourth gen intel, tbh I feel no need to upgrade :3
6 1 ReplyDo you mean 4th gen core i? If that's the case, I only recently upgraded from it as well. If you actually mean 4th gen Intel...how's that 286 doing for you?

Same, running a E5 2697 v4 (18C/36T) (Broadwell) that I bought used about 2 years ago. Also have a server running Ivy Bridge CPU.
I don't game much, but this CPU is perfect for productivity type of work.

What do you even need new, "faster" CPUs for? Serious question.
