Nice that u use a i7 2600k. Personal I use the e3-1245 (I7 2600 but 100mhz lower clocks). And I do see that the I serie Just have a big hit after ddr4 memory . For the rest almost the same by years
Thank you so much for all your hard work, this is an awesome video and crazy useful, I'm on a 2080ti and a 4790k so have been keeping a keen eye on the 10900k. My main game is DCS World so I'm long overdue this upgrade!
If by "flattening the curve" you mean by aquiescing to globalist oligarch overreeach.. by allowing them to throw nearly 30 million new voters into unemployment causing all kinds of unecessecary death to age groups not at dire risk to secondary health conditions, also allowing government to trample over sovereign inalenable rights? then well done, you are just the kind of lemming they're looking for?
haha its actually really good when you figure out the weird ways it overclocks. its the only CPU here that has L4 cache and when utilized correctly it can be very effective. Hopefully we'll see Steve check back on it overclocked to 4.2GHz on the clock and 2.0GHz on the EDRAM (L4 cache). I'm surprised they got it on 2400MHz as i was having trouble getting it to be stable as the 5775C memory controller isn't quite as good as the 4790k and isn't a fan of running at 1.65V. They probably have better/more sticks of ram laying around to try on it than i did. But i am glad to finally see a video with my ol 5775C in it :)
@@mattb6001 I just wish it was supported on more motherboards, I'd buy one to use in my older LGA1151 mobo to replace the Xeon in the board so that I don't just pitch it.
@@mattb6001 I had a 5775C OC'd to 4.2ghz and OC'd RAM at 2400mhz. It was not a bad system, but I felt I had to upgrade to a newer platform. 4 core 8 thread is starting to look pretty low end, so I upgraded to a Ryzen 3700x.
When I built my 2500k system in 2011 and overclocked it to 4.6ghz. I figured it would last me 3-4 years. I’m still running it today with decent performance in modern games paired with a 1080ti.
I'm also still gaming on my 2600k at 4.4ghz, paired with a 1070. Only game that has given me trouble is Kingdom Come Deliverance. Every other game I can max out easily
@Jeffrey Grindle i have an x58 rampage 2 with 990x until 2020 paired with titan v and is insane the value of "future proofing" of the plataform. today i have an evga sr3 and maybe in 2030 i change again.
@@depth386 it won't be accurate as a single core run of each processor will run at different speeds thus locking each processor at 3ghz for example would give a more accurate ipc measurement for a single core run from gen to gen even if not 100% accurate.
The situation would've looked far worse after Haswell. Much of Intel's gains since then have been from higher clocks and now more cores. Of course, these tests don't show power efficiency, which was steadily improving all the way from sandy bridge to skylake. Even further on mobile, where Intel had less pressure to push clocks to stay at the top of the charts. The 10 series is the first where Intel is loosing on both performance and efficiency in mobile in a long, long time.
@@Xrey274 Uh why? Even when AMD went back on their promise which is by itself a OEM problem because they refuse to ship bigger VRM, AM4 supported Ryzen 1, Ryzen+, Ryzen 2 which adds to over 20+ cpu. Skylake barely changed anything about Kabylake and forced users to get a new motherboard.
New GF: So you ever been in a long term relationship? Me: Yep New GF: How long? Me: 8 years New GF: Wow nice, what was her name? Me: Sandy (On a serious note, I had my 2600K for 9 years now, and she's still running strong)
@@lolman123401 Actually you can go 400 MHz over the boost clock, that is 4.3GHz. You can have about 4.1 in games on all cores which is not bad at all. I am running a 3770 non k. Good K's are hard to find these days.
@@lolman123401 that is not correct. Fully unlocked. I actually type this from a 3770k with the muiltiplier set at x44, running stable @4532 mhz with the PCH running @ 1,12v.

All mounted on a Z77 sabertooth mobo from Asus, very decent VRMs imo.
I’ve had the same motherboard and CPU since November 2011. I use the 2500k in a MSI P67 C43-B3, with a Hyper 212 cooler. I’m using Cryonaut and recently replaced the paste as well. In the last couple years, I have decided to push the chip as hard as I can recently and find it’s max “stable” overclock with my setup. I run 4.4Ghz at ~1.3v and I’ve never seen the CPU go over 65c under load, synthetic and in games. I’ve only pushed it this far recently and wish I did earlier. According to CPU-Z, this is a STABLE 33% overclock. I was able to do 4.5 “mostly” stable, but it would BSOD in PUBG and that’s what I’m really trying to squeeze performance for. I love this chip so much. Sometimes, it’s hard for me to imagine how a computer could even be faster because this thing STILL meets most if not all of my needs.

I have 2500K at this moment and i have to say its meh... the difference from Q6600 (when i changed a long time ago) was so low... it was like 10% Thinking of buying 3600 too, the x570 motherboards are a bit pricey and the last few months were a bit weird... so I still dint bought a Mobo, CPU, RAM and an NvME
I'm still on a (non-overclocked because heat = bad in the current location) 2500k, and... I still don't have a good argument to make on upgrading the darn thing.
yea, probably best bought CPU for 200$, could hold decently almost 10 years. Never in history was that time... Imagine, in 1990 bought 486 25 Mhz... and had it in 1999. Impossible. :) Not to mention, that price of 486 in those times was like highend now. In midrange, it was like buying 386 SX in 1990.
@@warrax111 Almost, mine went out October 2020, so 3 months before 10 years. It was fine for GTX 1070, but upgrading to 2060S it started to show its age. But single core performance on 4.8 GHz is still good. CPU-Z score 477 and 3700X @4GHz has 489. I guess the minimum it needs are 4 additional threads the 2600K has, that could take it to 11 years of service. 10600K is a really nice upgrade, though I don't want to repeat the 10 years, upgrading hardware is so much fun after all.
Still on a 2500K today since April 2011. GOT Myself an LG 38GN950 ultrawide for Xmas so Picked up a 2070 Super and will probably upgrade to a 3080 Ti next year once the supplies ease and scalpers die. Plan to upgrade to a 10900k or 11900k after the 10th year anniversary :) I love upgrading, makes me recall my first build in 2001 with an AMD Athlon 500 and GeForce 256 DDR!
The Phenom II x6 was released just about 10 years ago, maybe plus a few days. But from there it's basically a long wait until Ryzen. The semicustom and APU parts of their business were more interesting than the enthusiast part during this time frame.
@@packerman1203 Well I only have a 1070 in it now (until nvidia releases 3xxx series) but I usually play SC2, diablo 3 and HOTS at 4k@60 maxed settings. It's my backup rig so I don't use it much anymore sadly :(.
I recently acquired an i7 2600k from a non-geek co-worker. I was essentially taking all of his e-waste. It was a random dump of older desktops and laptops. They were machines from my local firestation. I honestly didn't know what I had until this video! I was surprised by it's performance when I paired it with a GTX1660 I had laying about and 16gb of DDR2 12800 RAM. Now I see why! Thanks for the video
@Kenn Honson X Absolutely, just keep in mind it runs hotter than a 5600x of 5900x, it has a full 8 core ccd instead of a 6 core and 8+4 core respectively. It will clock extremely high and it has great core to core latency and pretty good memory latency, so yes I would say so, just like I said it runs a little hotter than the rest of the lineup so make sure you have an adequate cooler
I think you would want to fix the clock and work with a Quad core setup for testing IPC. Windows now is so used to running on multiple cores that the OS itself would probably take too big of a chunk out of the performance if limited to single core. It would be cool to see an IPC improvement rating for processors though.
I've been running an i7-2600k I bought whenever the Z68 boards came out, basically nine years now. Stock speed for about a year then a nice overclock from 3.8 GHz turbo to 4.7... and no voltage increase. I've had to back off to 4.5 GHz in the last six months or so because Seti@Home was reporting errors, but eight years at a +24% performance increase over stock? That's waaaay more than I ever expected. My Q6600 only lasted four years before deciding it was too slow, and I remember going through a bunch of Athlon 64s before that. If there's ever a system I've gotten my money's worth from, the i7-2600k + Asus P8Z68-V Pro combination is it! Naturally I am eyeing the R7 3700X as a replacement.
+Erik Tomliston Hehe funny , I am on Q6600 from those times still to this day. OCed to 3,3ghz most of time, but decreaded it to 3Ghz, I fear for that 10 year old motherboard. But its true, i've stoped playing demanding games after Crysis 1. and for non demanding, Q6600 is still enough. Thinking about upgrading it to Q9650, that was my dream CPU back in day, but waas always too costly, and didnt upgraded so much. But now it's for 20$, so I'm thinking....
@@GamersNexus You could use some small font and put the prices on the left-hand side of the screen, in the empty space before the name of each CPU (see 15:00). Just to give an idea of launch price.
May I suggest a clock for clock comparison to see actual IPC improvements over the years? 4 GHz would be an ideal frequency seeing as all those processors can hit that mark.
Why has this become a joke? As a Total War player for 15 years that 6X more soldiers claim is the biggest news to the franchise since ME2TW. IDK why it's a meme now it's pretty sad seeing that I'm usually the only TW player in the forums when that slide came out :(
@@GamersNexus Strange, my 8 core i7 5960X seems to have a very large FPS hit when there are 8 stack battles on Campaign or 3v3 or more ultra size multiplayer battles...this is on Three Kingdoms which is a multicore optimized game. Other TW games before that performed like ass even on 2vs2 ultra. I would've hoped that the performance hit would've been gone by this new CPU guess I was wrong.
@@metallurgico Which only means modern CPUs like these are needed to run an ultra 4v4 smoothly...if what intel claims is true. The IPC/single core is NOT that far from current intel CPUs, I have that CPU at 4.8 Ghz 1.34V , 290ish watts on all 8 cores under open loop
Ive finally retired the my 2500k yesterday. It can still do 5.1ghz stable on air with an Asus p8z68 board ... crazy good cpu. Lets see how long this R5 3600 lasts me.
Still rocking my 2500K right now. Been running it almost nonstop for since 2011 folding proteins and it's been rock solid from day one. Finally replacing it with a 3700X based system.
Wow Gamers Nexus video quality is so great, even to little detail like the countdown timer at the left and right of video. To me this video editing style is the best in all of tech youtuber that I watched.
Still rocking my OC'd 4790k and still can't justify upgrading it yet. Just a great processor that's aged far better than I thought it would have when I bought it.
@@LoftySkinner Hence Devil's Canyon. Brought back the OC headroom lost with Haswell through a process optimization. I got both my 4690Ks to 5.1GHz stable.
Paxmax I had a 3770u, so couldn’t never OC (easily). Recently built a new rig around r5 3600, but don’t really know what sort of jump I made bc I can’t find any recent benchmarks lol
Went from 2500k on release to R5 1600 on release. Whats that about 6 years?! That 2500k was an amazing piece of hardware. It lived at 4.4GHz for its entire life and never missed a beat. But games were starting to use more threads and despite good average frames I was getting a stuttery experience with CPU load maxed at 100% all the time. And then came Ryzen :) Great video thanks!
I firmly believe that Sandy Bridge will go down as one of Intel's most amazing technological achievements. The performance jump from the first line of i5 's and i7's was incredible and really set the stage to get us where we are now. Absolutely fantastic.
Proud owner of 2600K bought on launch day - January 10, 2011 - here! Coupled with 16GB of RAM, based on an Asus P67 Deluxe - the system still runs just fine in its original case and with the original Corsair PSU. Bought over the years new SSDs and upgraded the video card multiple times from a GTX 580 to 780TI and now with a 1080TI and runs everything I ask at 1080P!
yeah unlike nvidia, they still research for new tech.... if intel keep researching for future after they earned a lot of money, we could have supercomputer now.
Well you can't blame them, that's what happens when you have no competition, What do you expect AMD would do the same if they were in yhe same position
The FX series of AMD was horrible, I owned an fx8310 and fx8350 machines back in 2013: "octa core of shitness". I was a broke student back then, couldn't afford Intel.
@@A.Froster you can't make up for it, actually. you can make it better, but intel is still a lot faster for high framerate gaming (intel benefits from fast RAM as well, btw).
My first gaming PC built was a i5 3570k in a z77 board then went with a i7 3770k then to a x99 board with a i7 5820k. I recently installed a i7 6800k running at 4.4ghz . Putting the i7 6800k in my x99 build was my best move to date!
I still remember when the 2600k came out. i7 990X Extreme Edition performance for about a third of the price (which was under $300). Best investment I've made thus far.
I've been on X58 since 2013. Since 2016 I've had a Xeon X5670 6c/12t @ 4.4GHz (22x200). In Cinebench R15 you would need over 5.6GHz on the 2600K to get similar score as the X5670 (or 980X/990X) @ 4.4GHz. Of course for gaming back in the day the 2600K was similar because games didn't use that many threads. But for video rendering etc. the 990X was a lot better
@@SuzukiRider93 I can distnctly remember reading the reviews during the time, and I'm almost certain that the 2600k overcame the 990X in IPC enough to overcome the thread deficit.
Steve, is it possible for you guys to utilized the vertical space of benchmark chart more? Like at 9:42, is it possible for you guys to put "box" on the empty vertical space, for the part you highlight in the chart? The box would look something like Line 1 CPU (Stock or A.BChz) Line 1a E.FGv IJKLmem and other info Line 2 Avg Line 3 1% Line 4 0.1% The chart are too crowded even for stuff like 20in display. Granted I didn't put it on full screen, but most of the time, most people probably doesn't either.
Its pretty hard to read on mobile. Gotta squint hard. How about putting the graphs vertical instead of horizontal? It might be easier to see left to right rather than top to bottom especially when the screens are wider but not really taller.
@@YTHandlesWereAMistake well hardware unboxed make the graph just about ok for mobile. These are really small for mobile screens even for big phones.. this needs to change since a lot of ppl watch videos on mobile.
I started the decade with the 2600K, and I ended the decade with the 9900K, I bought no processors in between. i just play games, and I have always been happy with Intel and their performance. I still use my 2600K too, it is in my Linux daily driver.
Incredible amount of work went into this.... Props to Steve and the team for making the video and helping keep our knowledge of the industry trends up to date. Thanks guys!
On the i7-5775C I wish you had done an overclock or at least mentioned (especially in the charts) the massive frequency deficit it had compared to the i7-4790K. 3.3 vs 4.0 base 3.7 vs 4.4 turbo. It's max turbo is under the 4790K's base all core.
I did the same last december, prices of old Intel hardware are super ridiculous in my country - I sold i5-4590, 16GB of DDR3 and some budget mobo added another 150$ and bought Ryzen 2700x, X470 mobo and 16 GB of DDR4. Best part of that is: I sold mine 4x4GB DDR3 1600MHz memory for more than I paid for 2x8GB DDR4 3200MHz :D
I'm typing this on my trusty 4.8Ghz 6600K, but im looking at the Ryzen 3600 sitting on the desk next to me and can't freaking wait to finally build a new system next week.
burntjoint You are in for a treat! Welcome to AMD "Cores for cheap". Don't forget to stop by reddit's /r/AMD ! Couple of months ago I built a 3600X and 3900X for the kids, and three Threadrippers TR 1920X, 2950X, and 3960X for myself.
@@MichaelPohoreski I can't wait for AMD to raise prices. For the amount of products that AMD supposedly sold their profit stinks! The shareholders have taken notice too. Intel could bomb the crap out of AMD with pricing and make em squirm a bit
I am still chugging along with my 2600k @ 4.5. Best CPU purchase I've ever made with how long it has lasted me. Only now I am starting to think of upgrading, but that's mostly because some USB ports on my motherboard are starting to fail on me from time to time to do some poor soldering coming loose over time. (I skimped hard on my MOBO budget back then being a highschooler)
I would love to see a decade of AMD CPUs as well. Would also be interesting to see how these CPUs performed at launch verses now after there have been driver/firmware and software improvements.
I run a 2700K and an RX6700XT, a decade between my CPU and GPU! It should be an absolutely chaotic bottlenecking disaster, but it isn't, because I game at 4K. In 1080P it would be another story, I'd need to upgrade my CPU desperately. But a sit is, my GPU is always pegged at 100% and the CPU usually hovers at around 50%. Its complete madness that 10 year old hardware is still usable at the high end. Consider this, there is also 10 years difference between a 400MHz Pentium II, and an i7 930.
Bought a 2600k in 2011, used all the way up to March last year where it was replaced with a 9900k. Sandy Bridge was awesome and I think I'll treasure that CPU forever, I even refuse to sell it.
2600 was a good choice. 9900k not so much. could have waited a couple of months more for the 3rd gen ryzens. i mean you've waited 9 years before upgrading
My old i5 4690k was a great gaming CPU for about 5 years. I was very happy with it. Then I bought games like assassin's creed origin's, shadow of the tomb raider, final fantasy XV, Battlefield 5 where I had major stuttering especially in busy areas like town/city centres. I now have the R7 3700X and it really did made a huge difference. Hopefully it will last me another 4-5 years. It's great to see competition back as intel got complacent in my opinion. Another great video. Very in depth! Awesome work as usual. 👍
I got lucky. My gaming notebook (incidentally with a Pentium-M 740, the grandfather of the last decade of CPUs) broke down three weeks before Sandy Bridge was released and I got myself an i5-2500k. Best CPU ever!
Fugboi i just realised I’ve degraded my 3930k by running it at 1.395v static at 4.7ghz for a few months, either that or me trying to run it at 1.2v system agent and memory controller. So be careful
Also still runnin a 3770k @ 4.8 with 2400 cl10 :) But degradation is killing it slowly. This year has been the third time I had to increase the voltage slightly
@@MarshallSambell I had the 4930k running at 4.5ghz with 1.396v for a couple of years and no problems. I was running 2400mhz Dominator memory too but I only had to take the SA voltage to 1.0v. No biggie. I upgraded to the Xeon E5-1680 v3 which has 8-cores and an unlocked multiplier.
This is why i'm subbed to this Channel, excellent work Steve. Thank you. Been wanting to upgrade my 6700k for a while but i refuse to take another 14nm Intel upgrade/sidegrade path. I hope things will finally change with Alder Lake were i can put my 6700k to rest for good.
Eh... I think it was the westmere gen, especially because they had 6core 12thread parts, and could reliably overclock to 4.5-5ghz, cooling dependent, you can still use westmere with only a percent difference in a frame rate between Sandy bridge and westmere with both overclocked, and if you use a 6core westmere and a top end 4 core sandybridge the westmere if more often then not ahead. Especially in modern games
I finally upgraded from my old 4690k to a 3900x a few days ago. Man, Haswell overclocked SO WELL! I had mine running at a modest 4.52GHz and was amazed to see it somehow keeping up with stock chips from three generations ahead of it. That chip did me well!
I've always been a AMD Fan for $$ Reasons! I would love to see AMD Version of this starting with the Phenom II thru the FX and then to Ryzen!! Compared to Intel at the Time Phenom and FX were Horrible, but would still love to see the Overall Improvement AMD Has made over the last Decade!
@@CaveyMoth Yeah, Phenom II was a good chip but only slightly better than Core 2 chips and came out right as Intel started moving into the i7, etc series. I remember wanting a Phenom II X6 for a long time though, but by the time I could afford it, it was too late.
If you choice intel you should wait another couple month because z490 will support 11th gen Intel along with pci-e 4.0 10th gen seem useless now with no future proof because it will only support pci-e 3.0
There's no evidence to support that Intel will release an 11th gen CPU only months after a 10th refresh. And even if they did, the upgrade from my first gen would be so phenomenal that I wouldn't even care. I'm upgrading to 10th gen because it's a new LGA 1200 socket, which Intel will use for the next several years. So when a 7, or possibly even a 5nm chip comes out five years ago I'll get that if I want it.
@@MakoRuu LGA1200 won't be supported beyond Rocket Lake, which will be released later this year, considering Rocket Lake will be Intel last 14nm+++. 10th is just a stopping gap for Intel to compete with AMD, same old achitecture since skylake, unlike Rocket Lake. So I still suggest you should wait a couple month.
I still have my I5 2500k CPU. I used it between 2012 and 2018 in my main system. It only has 4 cores and no threads, but it was the flagship of the I5 series. Great CPU. Replaced it with a Zen+ 2700.
Similar situation myself, went from the 2500 non k to Ryzen 3600. Took a lot of work and ended up needing to change my tower due to standoffs not quite lining up anymore, but it was worth it
I still use it, it's a great cpu. I'm planning to switch to a ryzen 3700 eventually, but it's still sad to see that Intel just can't come up with anything interesting for those prices
@@GamersNexus same here ... upgraded to R5 3600 but my I5 was never below 4.8ghz its entire life ... crazy good silicone i got it can still do 5.1 on air on Asus p8z68 board.
One of the best CPU video I saw on the net. Perfect comparsion, many people was curious in diferencies in performance between Intel generations. The only small flaws of this comparsion is: -Lack of power consumption chart -Missing Ivy Bridge 4C/8T CPU (i7-3770k) -Missing more Nehalem CPUs (2 for socket 1156, and i7 930 to be included more often)
My i5-2500K lasted me over 6 years. It was still serviceable but the upgrade itch got too much and I went r5-1600, which only lasted two years before I "had" to upgrade to a r7-3700X
My 2500K and 2600K still going strong. Actually may have killed the 2500K the other day when I switched motherboards. Put the i7 in a Z77 and the i5 into a P67, 2600K working fine thankfully.
If you had bought a i7-965 in Nov of 2008 (4c/8t - 3.2 Ghz CPU)... It would still been viable today. 12 years later... The performance has only risen 2x for comparising GPU performance has risen like x20 ( at least 10 times more than CPU performance).
@@DunhaCC I was talking about buying a consumer PC in 2008. And not upgrading it (excpet for video card) until today. Makes no sense buying 930 or 965 or even x5675 ( year 2011) today. You can buy a better and cheaper CPU today.
A lot of people who had X58 systems did upgrade to a 6c/12t Xeon around 2015-2017. I've been on X58 since 2013 and I bought a Xeon X5670 in 2016 and I'm still using it overclocked to 4.4GHz.
Awesome vid, the nerd in me is very appreciative of this video ! The 2nd hand PC builder is also shocked, I thought I had just been lucky with my 1st and 2nd gen over clocks. I may have to revisit my decision to from 2nd gen K chips.
I wanted a 5 series Broadwell cpu so bad. Looked everywhere when they launched but was never able to find one at normal prices. I ended up going from an i5 4670 to a Devils Canyon 4790K instead. It did not disappoint...
My uncle always had the top of the line Core i CPU. Upgraded every 5 years. (i7-965, i7-4960X, i9-9980XE, i9-14900K). Nice to see a comparison of most of them over the years
Really makes me think how well my i7-5820K stands up to the newer parts, or if I do need an upgrade soon just from having a multiple year old CPU and Chipset
or for 10$-60$ you coulda just gotten yourself a 6c/12t Xeon x5650 (10$) / x5690 (60$) which easily oc's to 4.3Ghz with a good air cooler (Noctua D15 / Cryorig R1 Ultimate) and in terms of performance its more or less between 6700k and 7700k but would do better in software that knows how to utilize more than 4 cores.
i7-2700k 8 years ago i7-8700k 2 years ago and last year the i9-9900k. This has been my new build path due to high FPS with high resolution monitor. Still have all 3 of the systems up and running with newer video cards.
Same here ... that CPU has been rock solid to me for years. I'm not much of a gamer except for a few strategy games and the 4790K performs perfectly for those.
@@Mr_Spock512 I'm still running a 4770k but overclocked to stock 4790k speeds to eek a little more life out of it. It seems to do really well for me in most cases, but it's definitely starting to show its age when I start trying to multitask now. But if I am only doing one thing at a time it's still pretty quick. I am thinking about updating to Zen 3 when that comes out later this year, or I might just stick it out a few more years for AM5/DDR5 to come out. It has certainly been the longest I have ever waited to upgrade a CPU, but it's just been a beast of a chip. It worked out well for me timing wise since I bought it right after it came out so I had a good few years of it being top dog with intels struggles to get to 14nm/Broadwell.
I upgraded from an i5 4670 to an i7 4790k for $150 recently rather than upgrading my whole system and its quite a noticeable jump in performance and can still handle all the latest games really well, don't think I'll be upgrading anytime soon either.
I finally took the plunge and upgraded mine last month, the performance gains from a 10600k are very noticeable, but yeah if you're not really pushing it past its limits it's still a great cpu
This vid reminded me that my friend bought a 7700K in 2019. And laughs at me cause I've decided to wait and see what new generation has to offer. Well who's laughing now mr. I-bought-an-old-flagship-that-is-comperable-to-the-lowest-part-from-the-newest-lineup?
Exactly, timing is everything with technology. Look at the "there's always something to wait for" types who bought just before Sandy bridge! I bought in at X570, PCIE 4.0 and Ryzen 3700X.
Thanks for doing this. I currently have a 3770K at 4.3 Ghz and these charts show just how far CPUs have come and how much performance i may be missing from my GPU due to bottlenecks. Looking at these intel 10th gen chips and AMD 4000 parts when they launch to see what part can last as long as my Ivy has.
@@kesamek8537 Do you really believe all that crap? If you do you should know that AMD has it too. Google it!! It's all there but likely isn't the truth.
