i7 5820k or i7 6700k?
Hi everybody I have to assembly a pc for 3d modeling, FEM and CFD calculations.
which one is preferable? - 5820k little older, lower clock, higher bandwidth and 6 cores - 6700k newer architecture, higher clock, lower bandwidth, 4 cores Thank everybody in advance |
hi, both of them featuring great performance , but i suggest for problems with huge number of cells go for i7-5820k, higher bandwidth plays an important roll in quicker solving big problems. by overclocking it up to 4.2, i7-5820k can have the same clock. after intel decided to raise i7-6700 price now they cost the same and even 5820 is a bit cheaper.

I agree with HyperNova. Memory bandwidth is much more important than CPU speed. i7-5820K will be much better for a workstation, and for FEA / CFD which are highly memory bandwidth sensitive.

So does that mean, if I can keep my CPU's Temp below 70 or 80 degree, I can overclock it? Thank you. |
