What is the best CPU for LGA 2011?
|
So I recently ordered an Intel DX79SR motherboard off of eBay for 50 bucks and some cheap Xeon to test it. I was thinking about my CPU options and wondered what's the best all around CPU while staying relatively cheap to preserve value? I planned on getting the E5 2670 which is a hyper threaded 8 core with fair clock speeds. It would cost me around 50 dollars which is where I want to stay at. My question is, I play games but not 24/7 and I do a lot of content creation so I'd assume that the Xeon would be a good option. But when it comes to overclocking I could also get an i7 (more likely an older Sandy Bridge 3790k) for around the same price which is already clocked higher and if I watercool, I'm sure I could achieve over 4GHz. The only "compromise" is that it's a hyper threaded 6 core. That's not saying that the Xeon can't overclock but anyways, will I still be able to game on the Xeon or will the i7 give similar render times and so on?

IDK, I just know that I can get at least 8 cores with hyper threading for around 50-60 bucks which is unbeatable value if you ask me. I did initially plan on going with a dual CPU setup because I found a deal on a dual socket board, but by now I'm gonna stick with one. If I do go with the 2670v2 or equivalent, will games be affected at all? I mean all I play is game like Fortnite and Forza. Rendering more complex videos in Hitfilm Express takes a while on my 2200G so I'd assume that the bump in overall threads would make editing more smooth and render times faster, though nothing over the top. 16 minutes ago, CastleCrusher said: IDK, I just know that I can get at least 8 cores with hyper threading for around 50-60 bucks which is unbeatable value if you ask me.
