Maze.3825 Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 In 1920 x1080 respectively - which would be best or are they pretty much neck and neck for our game?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malediktus.9250 Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 Assuming running them at the same clockspeeds they will probably perform about equal, since GW2 is not using more cores well. A 8700k is just a 7700k with 2 more cores and 4mb more cache. The cache might give a very small fps boost in some situations.If you plan to play other games in future, the 8700k will be the better bet.

Not a waste of money, the game is very much CPU bound. Especially when playing in zergs every little bit of single core performance helps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or just get an 8700k.In either case you're going to do about the same in GW2, but other games/applications might see some advantages from the 8700k Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeWolfe.2174 Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 Neither is needed and either will have more than enough FPS. You really should have the limiter set to 60 anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fermi.2409 Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 40FPS (aka laggy) while sitting motionless with a lowered FoV, sounds about right to me. Also nice zooming wayyy in and closing the framerate monitor when you run around Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zinchmwah.2067 Posted October 6, 2017 Share Posted October 6, 2017 A waste of money? Hm. Well, it's definitely faster than the 7700K, has a high frequency and has beaten the 1700X in workstation benchmarks. If I had it my way, I'd get the 8700K and pair it with 2 8GB 4133MHz memory. I'm only using a 6700 non K but going from 2133MHz to 3200MHz gave me 5 - 10 FPS astonishingly.https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820232445&ignorebbr=1https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813157796&ignorebbr=1https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819117827&cm_re=8700K-_-19-117-827-_-Product Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onevstheworld.2419 Posted October 6, 2017 Share Posted October 6, 2017 From reading online, Coffee Lake gets it's performance boost by increased clock speed... IPC seems to be the same as Kaby Lake. So if you're willing to overclock, a 7700K will probably perform similarly on non-multicore-optimized games like GW2.https://m.hardocp.com/article/2017/10/05/intel_coffee_lake_core_i58600k_vs_7600k_at_5ghz_review/5In any case, both chips run hot... so make sure you budget for a good cooler, maybe even a AIO water cooler, if you plan to get them running at those speeds.

The i7 8700k runs cooler then the i7 7700k. Test shows that the i7 8700k clocks to 5.0GHz witout any problems on all cores with veary litle voltage increas on air coolers for 24/7 use. Most i7 8700k runs 5.0GHz on all cores at 1.350V. If you do that on a i7 7700k you will need a aio or the veary best air coolers to run 24/7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fermi.2409 Posted October 6, 2017 Share Posted October 6, 2017 so make sure you budget for a good cooler, maybe even a AIO water coolerI definitely agree with the "good cooler" plan but I'd recommend checking out benchmarks before buying stuff. A lot of AIOs aren't better then high end air coolers much if at all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maze.3825 Posted October 6, 2017 Author Share Posted October 6, 2017 I picked up a 300 board and plan on using my Noctua NH cooler. It's cooled my HAWT i7 Ivy Bridge all this time so; we'll see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Engelsstaub.4356 Posted October 6, 2017 Share Posted October 6, 2017 No point going 8700K. Get an i5-8600K, it has the best single thread performance and 6 cores which is just the best for games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
