Computer Upgrade

[RickJ]

Well, it's that time of year to get a new development computer.  Here are the CPU specifications of the new unit.  Let me know what you think.   

CPU Features and Full Specification

• Cores: 100
  
• Threads: 200
  
• DDR5 RAM support: Sure, probably
  
• Base clock: 1.4 PHz
  
• Overclock capable, but doing so might create a small black hole inside your CPU (and void your warranty)
  
• PCIe Lanes: 28. Oh you're really gonna use more? Please...
  
• Socket LGA1151 compatible. We're as surprised as you are
  
• RGB lighting capable

Needs more cores, I think. Have you considered quad-SLI graphics cards?

[Danvzare]

But can it run Crysis?

No but I'm thinking of using motherboard that accommodates 8 CPUs.   So that would be like 800 cores and 1600 threads.  Of course that would require, like,  a jiga-byte of ram and hyper-ventilated coolers, you know, to get the full advantage.

Does it do hyperflagging? And what about a port for my Power Glove?

If you are already going for RGB lighting, you may as well pay the extra for RGBA.

That will probably run all new AGS games

Hell yes, all of them simultaneously.

I can't wait until I can upgrade and finally enable RTX real-time raytracing in 5 Days a Stranger.
