>there's no point upgrading to Skylake because there's virtually no improvement in performance since Sandy Bridge
huh?
for games there isn't

just because you don't like games because you're autismo doesn't mean other people can't enjoy them
>tips fedora because you're so much better than us for not playing childish games
still better than watching anime you fucking homosex
Can you post the Skylake vs Haswell benchmarks?
Only 20% in five years
>>52157541
We used to get that much improvement in 6 months in the GHz wars. So yeah anything less than x2 performance is SHIT of an improvement.
>>52157628
Either way it doesn't belong here

Vulkan and Zen must BTFO Dx12 and Intel or we're all FUCKED

silicon is now being pushed to its limits, making it thinner isn't dramatically reducing its heat
>>52157675
we're not talking about games though. We're talking about the difference the technology can make to running the games.
If I were talking about games I'd say that Skyrim > Minecraft or some shit like that
I'm not interested in the storyline, engine, graphics. I'm purely talking about the fucking difference one CPU/GPU/whatever can have on performance when playing a game, as opposed to another component.
Your argument is completely retarded and this whole >>>/v/ shit is pure autism
>Cinnebench
Oh that's precious, how about showing us a realistic workload?

FIVE YEARS
5 years before sandy bridge we had CORE DUO.

> Sandy Bridge
You got it wrong, it's Ivy Bridge.

Performance improvement over Haswell is pretty small and obviously worse compared to Haswell-E with its plenty cores.
At least I have to give credit to Skylake for fixing the housefires that original Haswell and Devil's Canyon are.
How about a game or a encode job for a benchmark? Cinnebench is pure synthetic.
My Devils Canyon does me fine. I'll start worrying about an upgrade when my computer studders.
>>52157701
I'm not exactly complaining, because my brand new PC doesn't go obsolete in a year anymore. There is just no reason to upgrade for end users.

CPU's running under 100ºC will always be fine.
