After reading it, you will understand! Upgrade the processor to see the slot!

Yesterday, many small partners commented on the book "The budget is up to 2,500 yuan, a cheap and big bowl of PC configuration came." After commenting on the small series, he said that he is an old computer. What if he only upgrades? Xiao Bian specially arranged for everyone to sort out the identification methods of processor upgrades in the past ten years and pushed it to everyone today. In addition, Xiao Bian had an error in the first configuration yesterday. It was pointed out by the buddies. Here, sincerely apologize, the first configuration should also use DDR4 memory instead of DDR3, and the final cost will increase by 20 yuan.

Prior to upgrading the processor, Baidu searched for a CPU-Z software. After running, it looked at the places marked by Xiao Bian. No matter what the first generation of processors had their own core code, they could easily distinguish their own processors. Which generation is. In this way, by comparing the processor numbering rules listed by Xiao Bian, it is easy to find a processor that can be upgraded. In addition, the motherboard can also be viewed with CPU-Z. The method can be seen by switching to the third tab "Mainboard".

LGA1156: Intel Core Processor

Includes Core i3 5XX, i5 6XX/7XX, i7 8XX series processors

Core code: Lynnfield (first generation Core microprocessor architecture)

Applicable motherboards: 5 series chipset motherboards, such as H55, H57, P55 chipset motherboards

Upgrade proposal: In the LGA1155 slot motherboard, the maximum upgrade is i7 870, pay attention to this processor power consumption is still relatively large, if the radiator is not good enough, it is recommended to replace the radiator, the current second-hand price of 500 yuan ~ 600 yuan, are disassembled pieces;

LGA1155: Intel Core 2nd Generation, 3rd Generation Processor

Includes Core i3, i5, i7 2XXX, 3XXX series processors

Core code: Ivy Bridge (2 generation processor)

Core code: Sandy Bridge (3-generation processor)

Applicable Motherboard: 6,7 series chipset motherboards, such as H61, H67, P67 chipset motherboard

Upgrade proposal: 2 generations of processors is undoubtedly a classic, many players still use the i5 2500K after the overclocking. In Xiao Bian point of view, i7 2600K is the current choice of more value, the price is about 900 yuan, 200 yuan cheaper than the i7 2700K, also can overclock. As for the i7 3770K with 3rd generation Core processors, it will be close to 1,000 yuan. The performance is not too strong compared to 2600K. It does not feel particularly necessary.

LGA1150: Intel Core 4th, 4th Generation +, 5th Generation Processors

Includes Core i3, i5, i7 4XXX/5XXX processors

Core code: Haswell, Haswell-Refresh (4th generation, 4th generation + processor)

Core code: Broadwell (5-generation processor)

Applicable mainboard: 8,9 series chipset mainboard, such as H81, B85, H87, Z87, H97, Z97

Upgrade proposal: LGA1150 slot motherboard can be upgraded to look a lot of products, but need to pay attention, 5th generation processors only i5 5675C and i7 5775C two, cheap or not to say, the performance is really like (no competition, Out of two cloudless processors Intel is enough). I believe many players are using Pentium G3XXX or i3 4XXX processor under LGA1150? Want to catch up with the current pace, can only upgrade the processor to i5 4590, the price is currently around 900 yuan. If you want to further improve performance, you may consider 4770K, but also overclocking. The price is currently between 1,200 yuan and 1,400 yuan. As for 4790K, Xiao Bian is not particularly recommended. Compared with the 4770K, the increase in performance is limited. If you look for nearly 300 yuan, there is no need.

LGA1151: Intel Core 6 Generation 7 Processor

Contains Core i3, i5, i7 6XXX/7XXX processors, Pentium G4560, G4600, G4620 processors, Celeron G3950, G3930 processors

Core code: Skylake (6-generation processor)

Core code: Kaby Lake (7-generation processor)

Applicable Motherboard: 100, 200 series chipset motherboard, such as H110, B150, H170, Z170, H270, B250, Z270 chipset motherboard

Here is still mainly for LGA1151 slot is still on the use of 6 generations of processor users, especially still use Pentium, Celeron level players, you can consider a lot of options, such as low-cost upgrade to the Pentium G4560 or G4620 processing The performance of the Hyper-Threading Technology has greatly increased, and the upgrade cost is only a few hundred dollars. It is still very cost-effective. As long as the BIOS is upgraded on the motherboard, there will be no problem (be sure to update the BIOS before replacing the processor). If you have enough money, you can consider upgrading to i5 7XXX processor. The performance increase is very big!

It may be that the small partners have discovered that Xiao Bian has not written processors for AM3, AM3+, AM2, and AM2+, mainly because these platform upgrades have little choice. Even if they are upgraded to, for example, "Fat Long" series processors, the performance/power ratio will not To make you satisfied, it's better to replace the system. They are compared to the same-generation processors of the same class. The gap is really a bit big. In addition AM series slot is really a bit messy, for example AM3 interface processor can use AM3+ motherboard, but AM3+ interface processor can not AM3 motherboard, AM2+ can be backward compatible with quad-core, tri-core, dual-core AMD processor, and AM2 can only be compatible with dual-core processor ... ah, Xiaobian really can not go, too. Chaos!

Also note that Xiaobian does not recommend that ordinary users buy the ES version processor. After all, it is necessary to distinguish between genuine display and ES display. Of course, if you understand it, you can buy ES version processor stepping and the official version of the same product, it is still very good value. At the end of the day, I know that you will say, if you have good suggestions, send them to the comments area and share them with other small partners. Xiao Bian will give you the top one.
