    AMD: Zen will offer 40% faster performance per clock than Carrizo

    You know, Nehalem doesn't really have an IPC advantage over Piledriver... source, I'm running Nehalem right now... see my sig.

    Need help OCing my 1650v3

    I was referring to the parts of that article that dealt with the aspects of the OC that did not deal with pll modding. I agree that is not needed

    Need help OCing my 1650v3

    Take a look at uncore overclocking, as I believe the cache is considered part of the uncore: http://hwbot.org/news/11337_der8auers_guide_for_haswell_e_4ghz_uncore_for_all_motherboards/

    Need help OCing my 1650v3

    Like I said earlier, I don't have a clue. Are you OCing via the clock or the "FSB" (not sure what it would be called on Haswell-E)?

    Need help OCing my 1650v3

    bumping this thread because if anyone who actually knows can answer, then I think I could learn something. I have no idea why you can't OC cache; in fact cache OCing is not something I'm very familiar with at all; I had always assumed it overclocked along with the rest of the CPU these days.

    However, as mentioned, that rig is no longer in existence.

    The game you like that nobody knows of

    Oh trust me, I have asked them. Many times. It's in IP hell right now because Cyberstorm was a Sierra produced game developed by Dynamix. Both of those companies are now defunct; as a part of the Starsiege universe, the IP was defacto purchased by HiRez Studios (of Tribes: Ascend fame/infamy)...

    CS:GO Multithreading

    This is what actual 3 core performance looks like (Tomb Raider, same machine as last time, no TressFX): https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B9g6EyuXHTnkNDZMUzVDQWczN3c/view?usp=sharing

    CS:GO Multithreading

    I think I see the confusion now. I should not have used the word "test" so liberally in the OP. The real reason I ran the game on these three systems was to get a general idea of the performance of each rig as I was purposing them, not to see what kind of engine was under the hood with CSGO. I...

    CS:GO Multithreading

    Actually, the OS differences are a help to the test, showing us that it is actually unlikely to be a scheduling issue - two different scheduling mechanisms showing basically the same result is no accident of a particular software. FPS was not really important for this test since both were GPU...

    The game you like that nobody knows of

    I hear you man, I also still have my original CD with no DRM and everything... Gaming was different back then, haha. Anyway, I run this game without issues in XP mode or an XP virtual machine with a few compatibility settings turned on. There's even a patch for cybrid return fire, which makes...

    CS:GO Multithreading

    25% load total tells us very little unfortunately. That could be two threads at 100%, or it could be all 8 of your threads at some fraction, or it could be something in-between. All evidence points to CSGO not being on Source 2 engine, but I can tell you right now that the game looks like it...

    CS:GO Multithreading

    You have four additional threads, but also a much faster core and wildly different RAM and probably I/O as well. Can you tell us what the load per thread was, and the number if threads used?
