$25 for a hyper evo 212 or simliar cooler to OC it to 4.5-4.7Ghz and you can hold out longer, which is what I did with my 4770k and 4690k

For Intel as long as you have the speedstep and power settings correctly it would still downclock when idle. Usually you turn those things off when you do the initial overclock to keep things stable...

If you are with intel...stick with intel..just my advice...a good significant upgrade for you would be a 8700k...look for some deals and enjoy the performance!

No, not wrong, and you're delving into a technicality that goes beyond the context of the issue I was responding to. Sure, the CPU is rarely ever truly idle; system call interface, kernel space...

Technically yes to both (with updated bios). But I'd strongly recommend on looking the B450 line of boards as the minimum starting point for running a 2700.

Wrong. Idle does not mean OFF. Idle generally means not running any active user-run processes in the foreground. If a PC is ON, but not actively running anything in the foreground except the OS, it...

I agree with everything except the "(Most games these days are still only using two cores at most)" part. Almost all recently released games that are at least mildly demanding of hardware are able...

"at all times"? You do understand that if your computer is idle, the CPU isn't running at all, yes? It's not like a car engine.

Gaming performance is based on the game you're playing and the resolution. Playing a new game at high refresh or 1440p? You'll absolutely notice a smoother gaming experience from the increased...

Somewhat subjective IMO. I usually work backwards (as some others have in this thread). What are you trying to achieve? Upgrading just because something is old doesn't really help you. I always think...

Is this a good upgrade over a 3570k with a 1660? I just bought an x470-f asus strix motherboard because I want the usb3.1 gen2 front header also the nvme slots. I want to use this for photo editing...

Video comparing these processors for gaming performance. In my opinion I would say for purely gaming it would barely be noticeable: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SiKqftHAJkQ

I am more of an AMD fan but this is insane when it comes to gaming. Third gen ryzen are still slightly behind the newest i7 and i9 for gaming. For productivity ryzen blows it out of the water, but...

This wouldn't be enough of a boost to warrant upgrading ram, processor, and motherboard. I would say either go with third gen ryzen or 8th or 9th gen i7. After watching this video I doubt you...

A 2700 was a great upgrade from my 4770K (Haswell was an Intel 'tock' - so pretty big performance boost over the 3770K). I'm not sure what the idiots replying to you saying "GPU" are saying - CPU...

You bought a K-Series CPU and never overclocked it, because you never bothered to upgrade the cooler? That's your main issue, right there. Not that your CPU is "old". It would be pointless for me to...
