Upgrading Intel E6850 Core 2 Duo to E8600?

[Dino M]

I hope I'm here in right the category. The following are my specifications:

• My board is a Gigabyte GA-P35-DS3.
• 4GB DDR2 memory
• XFX 5770 XXX Graphics Card
• cool my E6850 I present a number of man CNPS 9700 cooler.

(These data I have collected all my bills ) Power, the CPU E8600 in gaming noticeable in contrast to the old E6850? Alternate costs at € 259 the CPU. I'm so torn. Actually I wanted to "upgrade mania" not to participate, but when I read the reviews on Alternate, I have the feeling I so my PC can still keep even longer. I am requesting the members hanging out there to put some efforts to help me.

I would not go into the exchange, but the existing components to make fullest as it gets and / or then upgrade (eg to the above-proposed). This is not worth definitive:

• E8600: 3.33 MHz, FSB 1333, 6MB L2 Cahe
• E6850: 3.0 GHz, FSB 1333, 4MB L2 Cahe

Thus, you had 10% more clock speed, same FSB, 50% more L2 cache and partly a little faster execution times compared to the E8xxx E6x5x. The system and gaming performance is expected to increase by about 5%, Perceptibly are only from 20-30%. Say you'd only 5% up to 10% more fps in games have, and it is a game not playable, the front did not work properly. € 150 for "throw out", I think there is for idiots. Saving the money instead for the next PC.

The double post was unintentional. I just log on to the mistake and had to enter my email address - I've been surprised and then realized that I had a second Account was opened. FormatC have written to the request for deletion. Get rid of remaining stock it does not want. It had won at its local hardware store opening for Fuzzy and wanted to get rid of it now. Since I still have what is good, the price.Otherwise I will light your up method.

I'm still a base 775 and it would fit there. Whether the more a person buys or acquires any more, I could not say yes. That's why I articulate here. Do not worry, my friend did not pull myself across the table (the friends around me do not like because you look at?) It is a service that can accept or reject me. About the meaning of the CPU I have here is informed and well. Background of the 150 € is that the CPU takes at least 150 in the bay. And because it is a family man (the last 16 months, reduced working hours) to give away anything, I just got offered it. Also, I have not spoken of one of your CPU's listed ... So where is your problem?

What was it when your friend the CPU after 2.5 months will be going on? Yes for 150 € but you will also a new Quad Core. Instead, we see a dual core like the E86000 no land. You still do not understand. The CPU is still 80 € maximum value. There is always the false noses to pay more, because the CPU at higher price search engine is available (why ever).

• E8600 3.33GHz ~ 230 €
• E8500 3.16GHz ~ 176 €
• E8400 3.0 GHz ~ 153 €

Remember what? And now look at exactly is the set of my CPUs. Then you see the absurdity of € 150 for a Dual Core are. For 175 € you get on ebay of a new Q9550 is double as fast as the E8600. An outrageously low offer on the part of your friend. That's the problem. Whether this happened or unknowingly or knowingly I do not care. In any case, there is no reason to accost me here. I'm just as it is. There you have it at the time of your last contribution is not yet well understood, I was probably still not clear enough.

Games and other programs that only support Dual Core knotless run with the Quad Core. Games such as GTA 4, Anno 1404, however benefit significantly from a quad core. Even the most professional applications support quad core and are thus twice as fast. At the latest when it is overclocked to 3.33GHz which is usually not a problem at all. You're saying that 150 € to be justified only partially, if a q9550 will cost € 175 and to have the current fastest quad-core pure i5 760 for 160 € is? Here, / nobody has to know shit like there is someone going to feed the family has to pay a few thousand € for its master and the newly purchased condo, a nearly new car is around the corner and the whole financial thing then over a falls, when the economy goes downhill, and arise from 16 months on short time. It currently works for 6 weeks full time, but it's still several months until at least the MRP is okay again.
