I see Intel is still trying with that i3 K series model when the lowest i5 should still be the better buy for only a few dollars more.

My old computer speakers died. Time to buy new tech :blessed:

I ended up getting the BOSE Companion 5s. I'm setting them up now, and if they aren't up to snuff, I have 45 days to return (the benefits of being an elite member :win:)

I wonder the reaction of the board manufacturers when a intel engineer goes to them with a new project.

Manufacturer: We are working to improve the z270 and x299 platform to fix some minor problems and increase compatibility with the new coffee w milk n biscuits cpus:jawalrus:

Intel: Forget it, z370 is on the way mf :mjlaughrmx:

Manufacturer: :mjlookrmx:


Overall, most of the changes to the Z370 chipset is relatively minor. Obviously the support for the new Coffee Lake-S CPUs is a very big deal, but the odd thing is that for whatever reason Intel decided not to change the physical socket from LGA-1151. This means that you can install a Coffee Lake-S CPU into a Z270 motherboard without the need of a hammer and everything will appear to be correct - only the system will never actually be able to POST or operate correctly.

Besides support for Coffee Lake-S CPUs, the only major changes made are the native support for USB 3.1 and support for PCIe RAID :mjlol:. This may be disappointing for those that were hoping for some cool new technology, but the USB 3.1 support especially is really quite nice to see - especially if Type-C connectors really take off. Even reversible USB connector likely isn't going to be enough by itself to make anyone upgrade from Z270, but honestly the CPUs are what typically drive upgrades, not the motherboard or chipset.

Playing DOOM right now and...:wow:

I don't really know what exactly this Vulcan sorcerey is but my performance went from 150+ FPS on 1080 up to 200fps :mindblown:

I'm a month in having built my own PC and now going back to 60FPS looks choppy :damnno:

Ya'll showed me the light :wow:
