Intel Core i3-8100
Reddit take
Not enough linked mention summaries yet; the source excerpts below are the evidence.
Pros
- But yeah, I think I may as well return it and buy an i3-8100 instead (yeah. I'm cheaping the hell out x.x)
- Might as well return the Xeon and try buying an i3-8100 instead (yeah, I'm cheaping out really hard)
- What attracted me the most was fairly fresh Intel platform with official support for Windows 11.
Cons
- just bought an i5-8500 as an upgrade to my i3-8100; still not 100% certain if that was the right decision
- Very weak cpu/gpu. Honestly you could probably score some parts off eBay cheap that would be better performance
- Have 1070 Ti paired with an i3-8100, both will hit 100% usage at some point depending on AAA game title...
- Right now my setup is kinda struggling… I’ve been running an i3-8100 with an RX 570 and only 8GB of RAM, which is just not it anymore. Like it works, but once I try to multitask or do heavier coding stuff, especially on Windows, it start...
