Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

2600k or bust?
My bad I should have elaborated on that. Mt CPU is running at about 20% - 30% most of the time while running ArmA 3 on very high settings. ArmA games are extremely CPU intensive. I do notice that at times the "0" core runs a little higher than the others, but when the lag occurs I notice my...- Fire488

2600k or bust?
So far I don't for example as I did when I played Crysis on my dual core processor. I play ArmA 3 and it's mods as well as DayZ, ARK: Survival Evolved, Elite Dangerous, and lately Fallout 4. I am getting on average 55-60 FPS on all games with settings on all very high or Ultra. I was always...- Fire488

2600k or bust?
Actually if you re-read my posts you will see that I don't think it is much better and I stated that I read gains of 12% max. most results netted less performance gains than that and it just seems not worth it yet.- Fire488

Thats what i'm trying to say ssnider28. I did not try all those chips, but I read benchmarling sites that compare them and the difference seems negligible at best for my needs which is gaming.- Fire488

So Araxie are you saying as many benchmarks have suggested that a 12% gain or less is more noticeable than the suggested?- Fire488

I understand that there will be performance gains, but after viewing many benchmarking results on various sites it seems that for what I am doing the gains will be negligible. I play games like ArmA 3 which are extremely CPU intensive and so far I run at about 60 FPS on average with all settings...- Fire488

2600k or bust?
I am in the exact same boat man. i7-2600k at 4.5 ghz and it will NOT overclock higher with any kind of stability. I really want to upgrade because my hardware is getting long in the tooth and i love to tinker, but I just cannot justify it yet. I looked on Toms and Anandtech as well as here and...- Fire488

Intel Skylake Core i7-6700K IPC & Overclocking Review @ [H]
I am planning to upgrade my PC as I have not since upgraded my CPU, Mobo (i7-2600k, Asus P8P67 Deluxe, 16GB DDR3 1600 RAM), and RAM. I have upgraded my GPU to the EVGA 970 FTW card.
