In this case both “TVs are colored” just one faster than the other.superxxxstud wrote: ↑ This is like buy a good value high quality black and white TV when color TVs just hit the store shelves.

For some, they don't watch all that much TV, so to them, a discounted/capable 'older' black and white TV is all that is required.superxxxstud wrote: ↑ This is like buy a good value high quality black and white TV when color TVs just hit the store shelves.

This is a terrible analogy. The new ryzen, while better, is not revolutionary and in no way invalidates the older ones. Besides that, most people don't ever max out their cpu anyway; this is more than enough for many provided the savings are subsantial enough. Heck, I'm using an 2500k right now, and it is perfectly fine for my needs.superxxxstud wrote: ↑ This is like buy a good value high quality black and white TV when color TVs just hit the store shelves.

Sure if you are buying this for word processing. I have an old 3570k that I had to overclock and it still at 100% usage while playing 1080p DOTA, which isn't exactly the most power hungry game.. far from it. It runs excel spreadsheets smoothly and probably will for another decade, assuming it doesn't blow up. If you get a high end chip (I'm not talking about 1000$ fringe processors), it should last you a good 5-10 years. If you go previous gen "value purchase", your upgrade cycle is going to hit more frequently. You haven't saved anything.Patrickpete wrote: ↑ This is a terrible analogy.

To be fair this is not for saving money but rather to get something through the pandemic , but it seems that we all have to wait to arrive eventually.superxxxstud wrote: ↑ Sure if you are buying this for word processing.

You've got it kind of backwards. The only thing you actually need this kind of processing power for is gaming, and maybe video rendering or other CPU heavy workloads if you're doing it professionally. Everything else will work fine on a lesser processor for many years to come.superxxxstud wrote: ↑ Sure if you are buying this for word processing.
