Sorry, but what about that is specific to EVs? Nothing you mention is specific to EVs, but applies to all new cars. Except for your unwarranted fearmongering about the battery. Basically every car manufacturer offers a 8 year warranty on the battery, so you can assume that they last longer than that.
Thanks!
I often run mine with the boost deactivated at 2.6 GHz. Still plenty for most games. At least the good ones :D I probably should repaste it before seriously overclocking, though. Do you have a specific cooler? Mine is still trapped beneath the stock cooler, it never seemed worth it to spend money on that. And for the RAM, I would still be using 8 GB if it wasn’t for Beyond All Reason, which complains if your system has less than 12 GB.
Don’t worry, I mention it on every possible occasion :D
This comment got me to stop lurking and create an account! I finally found my people!
I’m also still using an i5 750 for gaming. Just this year I upgraded to a whopping 12 GB of RAM, because a friend wanted to throw their old PC in the trash. I upgraded the GPU to an RX570 at some point. And the main reason I still use this PC instead of a low-power laptop is that many badly optimized games try to burn a hole in the integrated GPU for no reason (looking at you, unity).
I love that someone else is still out there running an i5 750 :) There are dozens of us! The i5 750 was just too good for its time
Exactly! Just upgraded to 12 gigs of DDR3 this year. Still have my i5 750 for gaming, just had to upgrade the GPU, but even that was almost 10 years ago. And it runs all the games that are worth playing.
