I currently have an Asus Rampage V Extreme/U3.1 and a Xeon E5-2683 v3 and I'm think of either selling the Xeon for a used i7-6800k (I've been having problems on gaming because of the low frequency that the xeon is running at and I don't really want to bother with overclocking a xeon) or selling both mobo and cpu for Gigabyte AX370-Gaming K5 (rev. 1.0) and a Ryzen 7 1700.
So if I'm not moving big files all the time and editing videos, and what I'm using my pc is gaming, a sata ssd is the better choice?
If I'm running multiple programs at the same time, is it better to have an m.2 or a sata ssd?
For 130-150€ is it better to buy a 240 GB m.2 drive (thinking about either Patriot Hellfire M.2 240GB or Samsung 960 EVO M.2 250GB) or a 480GB SATA ssd? I don't see why an m.2 would be a better solution as it is much faster
Thank you for your time
Hello. I have recently built a pc with a used xeon E5-2683 v3 and a Gigabyte GeForce GTX1070 8GB Windforce OC and have seen bad framerate on many games (which is of course because of the low clock speed and the 1-2 core utilization). For that reason I am looking to buy a used i7 2011-3 processor and I don't know which one is the best. Many people suggest the 5820k and I don't get why that and not a 6000 series processor. Any suggestions?
Thank you for your time
