      Have to say, the Ryzen CPU’s look amazing value for money..are they worth it?

      Definitely get a Ryzen. You save so much money and they have more threads you can use for virtual machines!

      Yes, Ryzen 7 2700X is a lot value for that money. Cause Now the “new” generation is on high demand. You’ll be future proof for a while with this one. I never get above 60C° on full load(not overclocked).

      My general temperatures of my components barely hit above 62C°.

       

      I know you already have intel so you’ll need to change your mb too…

      3900x if you wanna pay around that money.

      Definitely a future proof buy!

      Given that next gen machines are coming out later this year, isn’t it best to wait if possible? I get the impression it’s best to wait and see where we get anchored for the next generation of games.

      dont know about Ryzen at all these days, when i started building my own pc’s late years i had one crappy AMD build and now i´m only trust worthing on intel 😀

      My intel i5-8600k 3,6Ghz overclock by motherboard to 4,7Ghz nicely and with watercooler it’s under 70c even hard gaming.
      now i need to upgrade my 2133 Rams to something like 3200-3666ghz

      Got an i7-7700k, delidded and watercooled, never goes above 42°, lol.

      I’d get a Ryzen any day nowadays, it’s much more value for the money…

      Unless you want to save on your energy bill (intel functions as a heater nowadays) you should go down the AMD road 😉

      My last build I got to the “other side”… So I bought a Ryzen 7 3800X.

      It’s cheeper than a Intel, and it was better.
