AOA guyz, upgraded my 2500k after a long long time. Gotta say it was and maybe still is one of the best CPU to date. As I saw some of its legacy in 6600k, by the grace of Allah, I made an upgrade to it, costed a fortune TBH. Here are the pics and unfortunately I missed the part in which you just install fresh CPU in that socket, best feeling ever. Maybe I was just too excited. Rest is documented.

Thank you so much bro.
Actually I did not, the reason being that they have released their high end lineup atm that is Ryzen 7 which starts from $329. This is 10k out of my budget. And on the other side Ryzen 5 is not announced yet, and will take time I guess, that's why.

Congratz bro :)

Which CPU cooler r u using??
Thanks bro. I am using Hyper 212 (the very first one). I can not believe its performance. I bought it back in 2011 and it is still giving me MAX 65C on 4Ghz 6600k @ all cores. But this is without any kind of dust as I keep my pc super clean.

ryzen will makes it way here one way or the other ---its good value for money lets see how it fairs out when benchmarks and real world tests are done on them .

nice build

Exactly, and I dont mind it being faster. I think it's cool if it is, however they have not yet released their $200 lineup, it will be revealed later and it will be the deciding factor for core i5 series. Also newer platform comes with shit tons of bugs. Remember the P67 chipset from intel for 2nd gen series, it was a chaos. I think buying ryzen (importing without warranty) will be a bad idea until 5 months from release.
Thanks.

    I dont think games have looked any better since 2019 onwards and they are performing worse and worse. Game developers have really dropped the ball.

    So while Playing Control, I found a journal which said that a bathroom is missing in Islamabad Beurue of Control. With Alan Wake and Control seems to be connected worlds. Even our city is in the universe as well. No wonder those Trail 5 and Trail 6 are haunted.
    did you know you can see @NaNoW credited in the game too ? :p

    What is peoples obsession with Battle Royale genre. 6 minutes to find a match, 3 minutes to setup a match, 2 minutes to land, 10 minutes for scavanging maybe 2 3 gunfigts and its over. Multiplayer landscape is looking absolute dogshit.
    I tried playing Apex Legends once. Couldn't find a gun for 5 minutes straight. If I found a gun, I couldn't find the right ammo for it. Got killed fighting with my fists. Uninstalled it the next day.

    I usually stay away from animes. Vinland saga changed the way i look at my life, and my experiences within. I recommend every breathing human being to watch this animated masterpiece at least once fromstart to finish.
    After I watched it, I never felt like i watched a show. It was a friggin journey. I got way too attached to Thorfinn and seeing him grow up and find himself and get rid of all the negativity inside of him was just pure bliss.

    With how great cod warzone has translated onto mobile. Mainstream Consoles have lost its value even further. Maybe console gaming was associated with TVs and how TV is not the primary source of media consumption anymore, consoles will lose its 200 million core audiences even further.
