Someone threw away a computer, had a i7 3770 inside it. Took that fucker off.
LGA 1155 motherboards are a bitch to find, everything second hand is stupidly overpriced and the only new one I could find was a H61 with only 2 DDR3 slots.
These processors are still worth a little, right?
i5 4670k @ 4GHz
i7 3770 @ stock

I have a 4690 non K. Would not really improve my rig but in some applications it might actually go past.

It'll be pretty much a wash. If you bench yours it won't be much behind my stock-volt overclock since you have a 3.9GHz turbo. So it's not gonna be worth sourcing parts if your goal was an upgrade.
Give it back, Tyrone
>>55080489
If it was "Tyrone" he'd have a working computer, not a part out of one.
>>55080472
I was thinking of selling it. I think the processor can fetch something like $120.
>>55080526
He's a little right, though, I did take it without permission. It was going to trash but I wasn't allowed to take recycled electronics, not even parts. Probably because some tyrone did something to cause a ban.
But it's better with me than at a junkyard. They won't know what to do with it.
>>55080286
You could always do BCLK overclock.
4.3Ghz 3770K here.
>>55080531
You're probably not gonna get a buyer at that, but it's certainly worth something.
>>55080556
Electronics recycling is a big business. They don't want you taking anything because the stuff is actually worth money.
>>55080569
It's a Dell.
>>55080556
damnit Tyrone, give it back.
>>55080609
I know it's big business, but they pretty much just dump stuff in the bins, shit will break and so. Much of the stuff is useable still.
I think it's just going to get dumped at the junkyard instead of going to some company that picks the cherries out.

god damn that thing was a monster. Why the fuck didn't I get a z77 matx just in case my next cpu would be trash
p.s.
IT WAS ; - ;

>You could always do BCLK overclock.
Yeah but most CPUs locked up after you bumped up the bclk by more than 1mhz.
>>55081166
What kind of an igloo do you live in where it goes only to 60c under load?
Proof or it's bullshit.
>>55080148
I've got an Asus P8P67 Pro lying around I could sell you. Want it?
>>55081984
You can have like $40 and shipping.
>>55082270
$40 plus shipping? Ya, that's fine with me.
>>55081984
How does that happen? I mean, I have AM2+, AM3, and LGA1156 because with a 4670k and 3770 it's not really worth keeping them running, but Sandy/Ivy still run with the best.
>>55082587
The CPU died, so I rather than buy a 2 gen old cpu, I upgraded both. I had an i5 2500k before though, and ya, it was great.
>>55082743
24/7 high voltage overclock?
give that kid his computer back, tyrone
>>55082782
Water damage.
I swear it wasn't my doing.
>>55080148
>3.5+5GB
GODLY
>>55080569
you can only bclk overclock consistently on old nehalem/core 2 chips and skylake.
>>55081984
enjoy your defective sata controller
