Hey no you answered a bunch of questions I had there. So I'm looking for an i7 with lots of RAM. Thanks that's excellent
Just to be sure there isn't a misunderstanding. With 7th gen I mean any intel iX-7xxx processor or higher.
The first (or first 2) numbers of the second part of the processor name determine the generation of the processor. The number immediately following the i just denotes the performance tier within the processors own generation
Thanks for the correction. I've lurked in here and the Reddit one back before the time we don't talk about, but I have no clue when it comes to hardware. I got given a PC to game on and was talking to my mate about buying server bits, and mentioned getting i7 processors. He told me it would be more powerful than my gaming rig because that's only i5s.
This makes more sense. So I can get an i3-7xxx quad core mini PC and try upgrade the RAM and storage.
I have a bunch of ram sticks in a bottom drawer and some HDDs I've never managed to boot yet, so I have things to play with... I just don't know what they are or if they work.
I love to tinker though. This all sounds like lots of fun
