Any CPUs accidentally paired with one single-channel 4GB DDR4 2133 CAS 17 memory RAM stick. Yuck.... they run just as slow like any 2GB DDR3 due to extended CAS latency in DDR4. I am disappointed that I paid twice for DDR4 at half the performance of DDR3, similar to Pentium D experience again.
I successfully built two rigs last night, and this Pentium G3258 at 4.0 GHz with DDR3 1600 completely blows it away than Pentium G4560 3.5 GHz with DDR4 2400. I got done finish installing new OS from scratch 1 hour 15 minutes faster than with G4560 with its suspected SLOW DDR 4 timing. Is this...
I'm well familiar with these two boards, in fact both models have been around since 2011 or so when they were 1st generation. Asrock 760GM-HDV is a new 2018 model based on old 2011 760G design. Asrock also has N68 chipset by Nvidia verson, but is not HDMI compatible, while Gigabyte 78LMT-USB3 is...
i3-8100 would be a dramatic improvement for not going obsolete. Intel processors depreciate faster than AMD after 4-5 years. Core i5-4570s now selling for $70 range.
When you upgrade to full four cores, the frequency speed number is lower (single-thread) and will be slower than Core i3-7320. DDR4 RAMs also have increased CAS latency timings. I found any DDR3 RAMs with CAS Latency 8 or less are faster than any DDR4s I put in.
FX-8320E and FX-8370E are the newest 95W FX CPUs. Since this new 2018 Gigabyte 78LMT-USB3 R2 just came out, it will be in production until end of 2020 when all Windows 7 support ends. Imagine owning a new AM3+ in year 2020 with Sempron 145.
This is true, only about 20% of Athlon II X2 220 made use a quad-core die but with two cores disabled. Majority use Regor dual-core version.
A more efficient value is to get the Athlon X3 version (like Athlon 425) for just $10-$12 each. All of them has an additional one-core disabled.
This Gigabyte 78LMT board is their best-selling motherboard of all time, and their most important model, regardless how obsolete it has become today. There are bunch of people refuse to get into AM4 game. And FX-8350 can reach $5 ten years later.
The legend lives on... 2018+ Gigabyte 78LMB-USB3 R2 AM3/AM3+ (just released) with Ryzen box packaging, this time with USB 3.1 port. I wonder whether this board works for Windows 10 this time?

Let's put in all the $5 Athlon II X2...
