Discussion Arrow Lake Builder's thread

My whole day feels like wasted after I saw this: https://browser.geekbench.com/v6/cpu/compare/13477047?baseline=11985263

How can a frickin' non-K CPU be beating my K CPU???

Time to sell this sample and buy 265K

Excellent advice for those scratching their heads with Arrow Lake overclock instability: https://www.overclock.net/posts/29516511/

Fyi you can buy 265K for ~250$

 

[igor_kavinski]

Still too expensive

$13 more gets you a liquid cooler: https://www.newegg.com/intel-core-u...-1851-desktop-cpu-processor/p/N82E16819118506

I looked into it but decided to wait for Arrow Lake Refresh. Wy wife's computer is 13 years old and probably needs to be replaced. But there is no rush.

Wait for Black Friday/Cyber Monday. The dip in price may be insane.

Well, Amazon already had the 265KF for $210 before. I imagine that has to be the floor... surely it can't go lower.

Oh damnnnn if only I could've gotten my hands on that as introduction to Arrow Lake!
