Which is more suitable for me, i5 3570k or e3- 1230v2?

The I5 3570K can be overclocked directly, and the whole platform has to be upgraded. E3 1230v2 can't be overclocked. The motherboard is well matched and the price is ok. It depends on your specific use. If it is compression, it is necessary to deal with multi-threaded tasks, video transcoding or multimedia processing rendering. E3 is stronger, but it is slightly weaker if you just play games. E3 hard decoding function is missing. One of the major features of Sandy and Li Chengyuan platform is its super block hard decoding function (setting display is automatically used when hardware decoding is used). V2 should not be displayed, so it can only be soft decoded. It seems to be a waste to use nuclear display. In fact, you can use a program (name forgotten. After the launch of ivb, this program has a new function: mixed crossfire). This program allows you to use a separate display when playing games and in your spare time (watching movies). . . ) Use nuclear display to reduce power consumption.

E3 is a spare part, which is an after-sales problem and can only be guaranteed by the store. Although there are few problems, there is no guarantee. Personally, I prefer the threads i5, e3 1230v2 8, which are useless for most games. Ecc memory function looks beautiful, but most motherboards don't support it at all, which is totally useless. E3 didn't respond wisely. E3 consumes a low amount of electricity. After one year, I can only leave you 20 yuan. A few years later, you think it's rubbish. WIN 9 WIN 10 is out. Give him an overclock, and he's gone again. In this era, there are so many CPUs that you can't tell the difference between playing a simple game. Playing games at home is even more meaningless. There are many tricks in the sentence "The price of i5 and the performance of i7", so weigh it yourself! ! ! !

It is right to choose I5. What E3? You see, all the businesses here recommend this. The merchant said it was to make money. E3 made a lot of money. It's too simple. The first thing to look at when buying things now is after-sales. Really, you are not a professional and you can't see anything else. Only the mainstream, service is king!

Recently, E3- 1230 was chased by more than one person who filmed E3- 1230. They are all worshipped as gods. Let me also talk about my views on E3-1230. I prefer i5 2320/2500K/3570K for the installation scheme of the same grade.

First, compare two American specifications. The main frequency of E3- 1230 is 3.2G, which is 0.2G lower than that of i7 2600. E3- 1230 V2 switches to IVB architecture, which is higher than E3- 1230 100MHZ to 3.3G and lower than i7370 by 0.2G. The number of threads and cache are the same as the corresponding i7, with four cores and eight threads, and 8MB of tertiary cache. Another difference is that E3- 1230 V2 can be quadrupled with quad-core turbo frequency, which is 3.5G

Some people say, what about ECC? E3- 1230 has more ECC. Ok, I'll start with ECC. ECC is a memory error check. Although your CPU supports ECC, it doesn't mean you can use ECC. You need a chipset that supports ECC, or a motherboard, and a memory that supports ECC, and you need to turn on the ECC function in the BIOS to use it. Only C200 chipset supports ECC, and there are seven corresponding C2 10 chipsets, H6 1? Z68？ Z77？ B75？ B75, renamed P75 because there is no video output? Sorry, these are not supported, so E3- 1230 is used to match these civilian chipsets. Those who are still thinking about ECC can wash and sleep.

As for the memory that supports ECC, although it is not difficult to buy, it is more expensive to have one more granule, and since your chipset does not support it, why buy ECC memory? Think ECC memory is stupid and fast? That's your own stupidity. Let's go to the brain to make up ECC, so as not to waste saliva.

What's the use of ECC that everyone is chasing? I don't think all blind chasers know it. Simply put, reading and writing in memory for a long time will increase the error rate. ECC adds a check code every time it reads and writes, which can greatly reduce the error rate. How useful is it? Memory serves as the middle channel, with CPU cache above and storage system below. They are all ECC. Therefore, for ordinary civil PCs, the continuous boot time is usually less than 24 hours, and the memory ECC is almost useless, which is only useful if the server is not shut down and restarted for several months. Do you think it's worth spending money on functions you don't need?

Then say warranty. E3- 1230 Now there are a lot of spare parts, and the boxed ones are also deep packages, fooling you, so the so-called warranty is the store guarantee. People often do not pay attention to the warranty of computer hardware, and it is not unreasonable to buy it casually for cheap parallel imports. First, it's too hard to break down, especially the CPU. Anyway, it's estimated that it won't take ten or eight years, and it will have been eliminated long ago. Second, the person who undertakes the warranty task will always hinder you in all aspects, so everyone loses confidence in the warranty and buys a new one if it is broken. Anyway, the hardware was eliminated before it broke down. We all know that we can't avoid stepping on real mine hardware. If there is no mine, you can only blame yourself for poor RP. So guarantee this thing, two words, floating clouds.

E3 chasers-1230 also value the following three very important aspects: one is four cores and eight threads, YY. Second, its TDP is lower than that of the same generation i7, 95w->; 80W，77W-& gt； 69W, save electricity. Finally, the most important thing is cheap. The price of i5 can buy the performance of i7.

YY？ I've seen too many four cores and eight threads, so that's it. In fact, there are few opportunities to use eight threads, and some 2 13 games will have low performance due to hyper-threading, unless you have the habit of staring at the eight windows of the task manager every day.

Save electricity? Ok, even if you save 15W, you can count eight hours of boot time a day, and then count eight hours of CPU full load. Congratulations on saving 0. 12 kwh a day, 6 cents. Congratulations on saving 20 yuan a year, which is enough for a meal.

Is it cheap? 1400 yuan's price is not cheap for a CPU. Compared with i7, it's really cheap. Wait a minute, have you ever thought that you are worth spending this 1400 yuan? Let's go back to the first question. I don't think there are many people who can really use the eighth line. Of course, some people who don't take money seriously can ignore me.

I'm not saying that E3- 1230 is useless. For some people, it is worth buying. For example, if you want to be a small server and need ECC, for example, if you often do video transcoding or multimedia processing, you can use eight threads to improve performance, then you can decisively buy E3- 1230. But if it's for ECC, eight threads look good, save money and electricity, and even think it's playing something different. Personal feeling is more than 2, which won't let you know more. I can only say that you were fooled by the contractor.

Some people advocate that 1230 is cost-effective, but it is actually unreasonable. The reason is that most of the performance mentioned here is what white people don't need but think they need, such as hyper-threading, low power consumption, ecc memory and so on. So the calculated cost-effectiveness ratio is just imaginary. If it's just the performance that ordinary users need, then the cost performance of this U is actually very ordinary, similar to that of i5-2320. Think again.

1230 wouldn't be so popular if it weren't for the touting of CHH webmaster. After all, it is the CPU of the server, and most people don't think of using it when installing it. However, since CHH webmaster strongly recommended 1230, there will be rookie posts on major DIY forums asking, "What about this 1230 U? CHH said it was a good deal. The price of i5 and the performance of i7 ". I have never seen this kind of post before CHH webmaster recommended 1230. 1230 was known and bought by Xiaobai, and Chrysanthemum Wheel definitely contributed. In fact, he is also proud of it. In one of his evaluation articles, he specifically mentioned the impact of his recommendation on the sales of 1230. In fact, since everyone knows that his words have such great influence, he should be more responsible for his words. However, he proudly announced that 1230+m5g+msata ssd is "standard", which is simply a set of brain-dead configurations with a lower limit. His words were arrogant, but all the white people echoed them.
