HI I am thinking of getting a new GAMING PC (100% used for gaming and of course media watching).
This post was between 3 Choices : i7 7700K, Ryzen 1700X and WAIT.
I finally decided to go with WAIT. I want to thank you all for the feedback. After reading your posts and going through many benchmarks i decided to stay with my Current i7 4770K.
WHY NOT i7-7700K? A great processor, 4 cores, stable platform, but unfortunately RYZEN made intel to realize it has to bring 6 cores to the mainstream. i7 brings FPS but nothing more. No multi tasking compared to RYZEN and the benefits at 4K is not something to gloat about but with Canonlake coming in less than 7 months (hopefully?) the Jump from Hasswell to Kabylake is not warranted...
WHY NOT RYZEN 1700X? It is not the best choice for gaming yet. Even at 4k there are differences at FPS and yes at 4K even a few frames means business. RYZEN while is a great value and will force companies focus on multi cores it is still not there. Single thread performance and IPC not great against i7 (still). I have some old games which are not optimised and their performance will surely lag, especially at 4k. Memory latency issues still out there.
SO WAIT! Zen 2 if it comes or canon lake. I will check performance gains and I will make my decision then.
Once again thank you all...
