I downvoted bc he preordered a 8700k after spouting AMD for months and months. Had nothing to do with his GPU

You sound jelly.
I bet you wish you drove a first model/ 15 year old 350z that all the chicks dig.

To be fair, he usually shits on people that buy i5s over Ryzen or upper end i7s (x99) over 1800x/threadripper. He owns a 7700k already, and he'd probably agree that it's the #1 CPU to buy for gaming.
I do agree with coyote, though. Why waste your money on a new CPU when your GPU is still the bottleneck?

I paid less for my 5960x, mobo, psu and RAM then you did for you new CPU and Mobo

Alright so I've narrowed my motherboard choices down to the ASRock Taichi and the Asus ROG Strix Z370-E. Both about the same prices/features. Gonna wait for some more reviews, never had ASRock before but the Taichi's are niiice.

Exactly. Could you imagine the poor bastards that paid the 1K for those things?
Posted on 10/7/17 at 9:02 pm to UltimateHog
People are still paying $600+ for it.
I bought my mine with 32gb ram, Mobo, ssd, h100i v2, gtx 660 (lol), shitty case and rm1000x for less than that

Used sure, no one would buy them new at that price now with X299 or Coffee Lake offering more performance for considerably less.
I paid less than $600 too. $380 + $194 for the mobo.
Fingers crossed I can hit 5.2GHz delidded. All of them are hitting 5GHz and quite a few can do 5.1-5.2 across all 6 cores.

Ya no shite... I don't ever buy or check new prices unless it's in this thread haha

Yeah 1K brand new at launch and still 700 now.
380 for an 8700K and 200 for mobo while selling 7700K for around 300. Not even expensive imo and I get a TON of fun out of it which is what really matters.
I'm glad I kept the delid tool I bought, once again terrible TIM used by Intel, OCers under load are seeing 10-15 degree improvements swapping out to a good TIM.

8700K, 7820X, 7800X, Ryzen 1700 are all quite a bit cheaper than a 5960X while offering more performance. That's a lot of better CPU's for a lot less money.
Posted on 10/7/17 at 11:17 pm to UltimateHog
What cpu/mobo you selling now?
Posted on 10/7/17 at 11:19 pm to Devious
The 7700K when the 8700K comes in, will probably keep the mobo.

Gaming for sure. The 5960x still shits on all of those in everything else
