I run 3770k @4.4hgz daily, with 16gb cl10 2400mhz ram. Thing is so snappy with fully optimized windows 10. Also cs2 competive goes 200fps average. Oh yeah my gpu is 1080 8gb.
4.4GHz all cores is great on that CPU. I snagged a deal last year. The guy had Z68 mobo, i7 3770K (overclocked to 4.3 all cores) and CL9 2200MHz RAM. He had a 1080 TI as well, but he kept it for himself. Overclocking was cool in the old days :) I remember wanting a 4790K for myself, but the money didn't allow me to, so I went with the budget 3770 & GTX 1050 TI option instead.
My old rig I7 3770 rx 6600 Definetly gaming machine, guaranteed lock 30fps, but some game it cant stable 60fps (900p - 1080p) Now move to am4 with same gpu Realy nice cpu even until this day
@Ohsgo have you try it?? Just stayed in win 10 with minimum bloatware Last time i use for game starfield and rdr 2 Lock 30fps for every game with high - very high quality (using ssd or nvme) If you want console machine and very2 low budget , this cpu still can do some job Imho, but dont expecting to much with this cpu
I have a xeon e3 1246 v3 (i7 4770k equivalent) paired with rx 580 8gb with 16gb ram. I played metro exodus, rdr2, gta 5, hogwarts legacy, apex, rust, and a little bit of editing on after effects (1080p). it runs pretty well and smooth on games. Theres a youtube channel that does benchmark with these kind of cpu (xeon) paired with rtx.
The biggest performance leap was from 3rd gen to 4th gen. AVX2 was introduced when Haswell CPUs came out (4th gen) and it made quite a lot of difference. Besides that, I don't think we have had a note worthy leap so far. Another big leap was from 9th gen to 10th gen. Probably the biggest leap we've ever had.
I had Xeon E3-1270 v2 that I bought yesterday with venmomrx motherboard, (it's a replacement for my broke FX 8320), it performs 94% of i7 3770 performance according to my cinebench r15 benchmark (scored 616 cb) using 16 gigs of ddr3 memory, is it okay if I'm planning to upgrade my system to nvidia 40 series? or probably an RX 6600 (I heard for rx 6600 cut my performance cause it uses pcie 4.0)
If you have a CPU that is approximately as strong as i7 3770, then I don't recommend upgrading a GPU to any RTX series or any 6000 (or higher) series GPUs. The CPU will be a big bottleneck. However, if you want a modern 40 series RTX card, get RTX 4060 brand new. If you want a used one, get a 2060 or a 3060. Don't worry about that PCIe 4.0 thing. If you want AMD, you can get any 6000 or higher series one. Just keep in mind that you won't be using a lot of the GPUs power, it will simply be doing mostly nothing cause of the CPU.

Great quality video, genuinely thought it was from one of those people who have atleast 20k+ subs keep it up!
interesting to see this! also nice capture card for proper gameplay :)

clown alert
impressed at how well that I7 3770 handles the rtx 3060
Should try an e5 2697 v2 amazon Combo (still ivy bridge, for 70 dollars) with that GPU... you will be impressed
very cool video and interesting topic! Intel didnt improve a lot from 3th to 9th generation did they?

With a good overclock the 3770K could work decently

Does it bottle neck??
Yes. It's a really big bottleneck most of the times.
