Broadwell Desktop Processors

[Fatfool]

Hello,

Where do I get a Broadwell i5-5675C?

Also, any ITX boards to recommend that come with Displayport 1.2 and wifi?

4K video doesn't seem to need Skylake or are there other attributes that Skylake has over Broadwell? Apparently now there's an adapter for DP 1.2 to HDMI 2.0

I was also looking a the Zotac Skylake C series

But no one seems to know the cost or specs or if it comes with HDMI 2.0 natively.

Hmm I just went to take a look at Amazon. The i5-5675C is 289 USD!!!
Wah more expensive than a i5-6500 or i5-6600. It has the Iris Pro though.

Not seen a Z97 user with a Desktop Broadwell in SG yet. Were Desktop Broadwells ever sold in SLS in the first place?

Usually the Zotac Zboxes are brought in by Dr_Disciple. Dunno where he's gone though. Seems like business isn't good these days.

Yes but it has its merits of the Iris pro and 65W and both Broadwell processors are actually pretty decent compared to Skylake.

You should go for 15W Skylake lah
15W is sibei song.
If I 24/7 for 365, my annual electric bill will be under SGD$40 per annual.

It can display at 4k, 60hz but those cannot decode 4k video at 60 fps.

Previously I was thinking of getting a i5 5675C, but like you mentioned, the price is a little off. Is there any reason why you are considering getting it? For some light gaming?

I am asking because if its from playing or streaming movies, even an i3 5010U will be able to do it just fine. I am running an Intel NUC with that processor and it works very well. Gaming wise, only works well with indie games or at very low settings.

Well, I intend to build a SFF HTPC without expansion cards. So if there can be a bit of graphics power, just in case, it'd be good. Plus the Broadwell desktop processors are pretty damn powerful (The i5-5675 performs better than an i5-6600k)

Playing or streaming 1080p movies are a piece of cake. Playing and streaming 4k video at 60fps is not.

Try this at 4k

and watch the Broadwell mobile choke. Tried that video with an i7-4720HQ and even that choked.

4k .mkv are also tough to decode with hardware only (ie with VLC)

So far, only my i7-4770k has managed to pass these..... It's able to play that youtube video with about 40% processor usage...... and assistance from my GTX 980.

Vlc doesn't play 4k video that smoothly.
Wmp classic home cinema plays it more smoothly for me.

It can.... if you throw an immense amount of processing power at it!

Then you should go Xeon.

Actually if your purpose is just to use its igpu, might as well go for apu. At a fraction of its cost. On par with the i7-6700 igpu. Just that its processing power is not there.

Just like what hwz reviewed.
