I want to upgrade my i5 6600k, because if have startet to get problems in Games like ac origins. The processor will mainly be used for Gaming and for running Linux vms. Or to finally make Linux my Main OS with a Windows "gpu passthrough" vm. The Video card is still a gtx 1060. But with the new nvidia gpus on the horizon i am not willing to upgrade, yet.
Should i go with the 2700x or should I save some money and go with a lower end model?
Ps: I wont buy an Intel CPU, because I havent forgotten meltdown.
