February, 21. 2017 - Decisions, decisions. Should I upgrade or not? Stick to Skylake or move to Summit ridge? There are a lot of rumors about AMD's upcoming RYZEN processors. According to leaked benchmarks it's nearly out performing Intel's counterpart. Although real-world performance will be quite different. I have been gone through many times that I should not trust just benchmark numbers. On paper, last AMD's top-of-the-line processor crushed Intel's counterpart. But in real world, it's worse than Intel's entry model. I'm using 6700K right now. It's overclocked up to 4.6Ghz. Maybe I should delid Integrated Heat Spreader than put some liquid metal on it. Then take it up to eleven. (About 4.9 or 5Ghz maybe?) Yesterday, My uncle-in-law called me and he said he need a decent PC. So I just thought that I'll just take the money and give him my used 6700K build. Just motherboard and CPU. Downclock the CPU and put it into tiny ITX box. And recycle the GPU that I've been using. Well It's GTX1080 and he definitely doesn't needed that kind of horsepower. So 6700K is still overkill but integrated GPU is enough for day-to-day tasks. Budget is about $800~900-ish. So X370 motherboard will cost about $200. R7 1800X will be around $499. And with brand-new power supply for overclocking cost about $200. So, it's going to be really tight budget. Also, I need a replacement parts from Corsair. Unfortunately AM4 socket is not compatible with H110i GTX. So I need a parts. I hope it only cost shipment. If this is going be a reality, this will be my first AMD PC. Because I had not been a Team Red. Maybe I hope this time will be different. :)
