I agree. I’m going to build an intel machine around this architecture. I was sold when I built an i5 machine for my pops and if KILLED my 3ghz Phenom 2. And it didn’t even have multi-threading
The stuff to build an 870 ll56 machine is super cheap, pull the trigger.
Let me put a plug in for the AMD Thuban, looks to be ~ the same price as the 870 ....I love my 1090T with 6 cores on an ASUS 880 board runnning at 3.7 GHz...and Linux Mint,...runs cool and has the power for what I do.
