Reddit mentions of Intel BX80677I57400 7th Gen Core Desktop Processors

R5. Pretty close to the i5 in gaming but smashes it in productivity.

Edit: Eh fuck it, full comparison.

i5 7600k - $210. Doesn't come with a stock cooler, can commonly reach overclocks of 4.7-4.8 GHz, 4 Cores / 4 Threads.

R5 1600 - $210. Comes with a pretty beefy stock cooler, can commonly reach overclocks of 3.8-3.9 GHz, 6 Cores / 12 Threads.

Here is a brief comparison between them while OC'd to 3.9 and 4.5

Here is another comparison, this time at 4.0 and 5.0 respectively

Here is a third comparison. 3.8 and 4.7

Draw your own conclusions.

Productivity is a no brainer. 6 Cores and 12 Threads for $210, triple the threads of the 7600k. I'm not sure where to get specific benchmarks for these types of applications, do your own research on that. Anything that takes advantage of lots of cores will do better on the 1600, as far as I'm aware.

At the lower price point - 1400 @ $160 vs i5-7400 @ $185 / i3-7100 @ $160

...No comparison. Intel loses the clock speed advantage while AMD retains the core advantage. There is absolutely no point getting an Intel CPU that isn't the i5-7600k or i7-7700k

>Would you say it’s a fairly good price at £600?

No, lol. You're overpaying:

• i5-7400 @3GHz - £140
  
• 8GB DDR4 @2400MHz - £79
  
• 1TB HDD @7200RPM - £19
  
• Windows 10 Home - £120
  
• GTX 1050 Ti - £102
  
• Total: £460.

  > building it yourself would only save you about £50-£60.
  
  /u/whosdr, I did a quick hunt. It would save them around £140. I assume a bit more, if they look harder than I did. Although, this doesn't include the case. So, maybe add another £20-30 onto the total?

i5:

> SPEED RANK: 173rd / 1176

i3:

> SPEED RANK: 115th / 1176

> Slightly faster effective speed. +9%

> Better value. +16%

That doesn't look like "clock rate". It seems more hinting towards "overall speed" with those "effective speed" and "speed rank" labels.

i3 is priced at around $160:

i5 is priced around $180:

It should work okay but keep in mind more than just click speed (the Ghz). You've chosen a dual core processors. Most recommended specs now are quad core. Like Fallout 4, it recommends a quad core i5 (Sandy Bridge from 2012) as a minimum spec. Your chosen i3 has a higher clock speed but 2 less cores. It should be able to handle it but moving forward a lot of games are becoming more CPU demanding and using more than single cores. If you can swing it you could get this and never need to worry about upgrading the CPU of the build. it'll fit with your MoBo

Sell every 1060 but the last one. Buy this board: https://www.amazon.co.uk/ASUS-Intel-LGA1151-Micro-ATX-Motherboard/dp/B01CZTFCQK/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=H110M-R&qid=1573339455&sr=8-1

and combine it with this memory and CPU: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Corsair-CMK16GX4M2B3000C15-Vengeance-Performance-Desktop/dp/B0134EW7G8/ref=sr_1_2?keywords=DDR4+16+gig&qid=1573339477&sr=8-2 , https://www.amazon.co.uk/Intel-Core-i5-7400-Retail-BX80677I57400/dp/B01MSTDS3N/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=i5+7400&qid=1573339489&sr=8-1

Honestly I'd go for a pentium G4560 for the described use, an i5 is overkill.

In any case I wouldn't recommend the Ryzen here as they have no integrated graphics, so you have to buy a cheap GPU to take care of the display, which makes it less worth it.

So I'd go for something like this which is plenty powerful for office use, very small, and includes a nice 1080p 24" IPS monitor:

But if you prefer the core i5 it is possible if you go for this one which is pretty cheap (total 810€). The rest is compatible. You can also downsize the RAM and SSD sizes which are pretty overkill as well, if you want to lower the price tag

Something like these maybe?

I love people making up numbers. Want some real numbers?

That's 195+114+23 (Ssd price)=332, not 440. You can find cases for basically free, I've found some people just don't want anymore for $1. You can find the 980 for $175 if you look for actually good deals. I'm just going to repurpose the rest of your numbers for RAM and a psu. 195+114+23+110+175+30+1=648. And you do realize I'm just trying to make a system that works right now right? It would be easy to get a better psu later.

Get crucial Ram instead, heat sinks on ram provides 0 advantage over a naked dimm, and get a 500gb Hard drive.
With the money you've now saved, buy this CPU instead

The i5 would allow for future upgradabillity without concerns of a bottleneck, GPU wise. IT would also be much better then the Pentinum. Besides that it's all solid

https://www.amazon.co.uk/Intel-Core-i5-7400-QuadCore-Cache/dp/B01MSTDS3N sorry typo xD

The logical answer would be the i5 7400, but check if you can find any deals on something like ebay (if you’re willing to go used)
