RE: Intels i9 Is Here - Some specs and power under the hood

in #technology8 years ago

Wow, the most useless CPU... Computers nowadays only use max 8 cores and 16 threads and everything works with no problems. There is no point in giving extra ~1000$ for cores that Windows won't use properly. If I am wrong, please correct me :)

Sort:  

It is total overkill, windows should support it fully as active live roll outs are always being pushed on windows 10 now. I believe the main reason for the new chips is because of VR and the extra amount of processing power they require or will require as they get better and better. I guess since 3D tvs pretty much failed VR is the next big push
