Intel Core i3 2100 Sandy Bridge vs. Core i3 7100 Kabylake Performance

[smartalgorithm]

it is interesting that my i3 2350M with Mesa 13.0.4 has openGL version 3.0 and not 3.3 as was here (mesa versions is the same)...
the graphic side comparison shows clear benefits of having a new hardware with beautiful power savings. I will have a nice upgrade then as i see

Your hardware should be able to do GL 3.3. Are you looking at the GL compatibility profile string or so?

i do this

glxinfo | grep "OpenGL version"
OpenGL version string: 3.0 Mesa 13.0.4

eagerly waiting for ryzen cpus ! for Michael's benchmarks and my laptop purchase.

thats the compat profile
if you just grep opengl
it will also show you the core version

Is it just me or is the entire i3 lineup ridiculously overpriced nowadays? The i3-7100 retails for about 120€, twice as much as the SMT-enabled Pentium, and the 7350K is actually more expensive than the i5-7400. WTF Intel, at least offer better perf/€ than five years ago...

Less people are buying cpus. So they have to raise their prices.

[aschmidtm]

Yes, because higher prices lead to increase of demand.

Thats not how supply and demand works... If demand drops prices go up...
Anyhow the idea is retarded since its circular reasoning and doesnt factor in production costs.

DDR4 seems make some difference

Yeah. I wonder if there is any way to factor that out. I guess not.
