![]() (Then maybe 15%? 18%? 20%? For Kaby lake vs Haswell.) As far as CPU performance improvements go, that's pretty big. A 4.8ghz Skylake would be 6.66% higher clockspeed than a 4.5ghz Haswell, combine that with a 5% increase in IPC would be 11%+ difference. The PC building community and all of the review sites (along with my own Skyrim benchmarks) show that Skylake is faster. Haswell outpwerforming Skylake? The only time I've ever heard of people saying that is with sketchy Passmark data. The main benefit of the Haswell successors are the lower TDPs which I'm not concerned about. ![]() The minimal gains have yet to be worth the time and effort. I have yet to even have the need to apply an overclock to my K-version i5. As for my processor, the Haswell architecture has been shown to outperform it's successors in many applications. ![]() I'll likely remain on Windows 7 for at least until SSE is more fully supported by the modding community. Windows 7 support will completely end in 2020. I have no plans to move away from Windows 7 or Haswell for some time.
