It’s been a wonderful journey for the people at Intel. Starting of from the humble days of 8085 microprocessors which couldn’t process 8 bit of data, now we have 64 bits processors, and even ones with several megabytes of cache memory.
The frustrating Intel Raptor Lake CPU issues continue to make their presence known, this time in the South Korean gaming community.
It seems that some PC fans are already getting their hands on the 14th Gen CPUs, with images showing off the box appearing on Intel Sub-Reddit. The image,
A retailer in the US by the name of CentralComputers may have just accidentally leaked the pre-order date, time, and release date for Intel's upcoming 14th-generation CPUs.
please get the power usage from this gen down because its just not practical.
I'm really debating if I should upgrade when this comes out. I have an i5-9600k now, but it is really not keeping up with the games I want to play since everything seems to be CPU limited now. But it sounds like this is the last gen of this layout and 15th gen will shake things up. Do I jump in and upgrade when this is out or wait another generation?
This is why I love/hate PC gaming. Just upgraded my rig to the "latest" gen CPU 6 months ago, only to see it put to dust in a year or so.
Lol, people are complaining about how their 660GTX or whatever is outdated and only maxes everything out at 40-60fps.
And im just sitting over here with my 555m GT. Yea, nowhere near anything worth bragging about, But still strong enough to play almost every game on the market at 1366x768 at high settings, which is fine by me.
PC gaming isnt about maxing games out or whatever, its getting a superior experience that matches your budget.
I still use and Phenom II X4, 3,4Ghz paired with a gtx 460 and 8Gb of RAM. I maxed out Bioshock Infinite, no problems at all. You really don't need the latest and greatest to enjoy gaming :)
EDIT: Anyone who knows what socket they will use?^^
I thought they are prepared for next gen already. With their 3rd Gen Intel Core CPUs?.
And the 4th Gen expensive damn! Intel Core CPUs are on the horizon.. Only rich people can afford.. Better buy next gen Xbox infinity or PS4. That would be more ideal and more cheaper.. lol
