WCCFTech: The first Skylake Core i7-6700K and Core i5-6600K are now available for sale on Amazon Australia and being sold unofficially. Being the 6th generation processor family from Intel, Skylake is going to bring improvements to both CPU and GPU performance with an updated 14nm process and a platform that’s built for gamers and enthusiasts.
Doom Eternal needs an RTX 2060 or equivalent, an Intel Core i7-6700K or better, or AMD Ryzen 7 1800X or better processor, and memory from 8GB to 16GB.
The Skylake lineup is a reminiscence of better times for team blue when AMD was still struggling in the CPU space and BrianKrzanich was the CEO.
Not in my PC. That trusty i5-6500 will continue humming into the uncertain future.
Side-channel leak in Skylake and Kaby Lake chips probably affects AMD CPUs, too.
with all these hacks affecting so many cpus, guess its time to back to the old pen and paper.
With all these exploits , they still dammand a higher price for CPU's , GPU's and RAM.
Its getting very expensive for the avarage joe to build a half decent PC these days.
