    I am wanting to know if anyone has experience with both the Sennheiser Game One and the Sennheiser (Massdrop) HD58x. I currently have the Game One's but I have been thinking of upgrading to a dedicated headphone, the HD58x, and then getting a mod mic 5 to go with them. My question is, will I even notice a difference in sound signature, sound space, bass, mids, highs, etc. by upgrading to the HD58x or is the Game One just as good when it comes to the audio for gaming purposes? My guess would be yes but I don’t know. I do listen to music occasionally but I am strictly talking for gaming purposes only here. I do currently have my Game One's plugged into my Asus Prime Z370-A mobo and I feel it powers them really well. I will also occasionally plug them into an Astro Mixamp if I want a little bit of surround sound with custom EQ settings. Any help on this topic would be appreciated. Thanks!!

    Haven’t seen any that jump out compared to when I last looked at them. Still wanna see benchmarks when the new Ryzens come out though. Hopefully they still have it for that price come time for me to buy if I do go that route.

    I5 8600k is now on sale at microcenter for $219

    Damn!! That will be a powerhouse! I’m wondering what is causing my current issue of my whole pc just freezing up? Just out of nowhere it will decide to do it. Sometimes I could literally have the pc on for 5 minutes doing nothing and everything locks, I might play for an hour and it will lock up. Other times I play for 3 hours or more with no issues. It’s really random. What board would you recommend I go with for the Ryzen?

    if it’s only 3 weeks away then I guess I can wait

    After looking into this more and watching some more reviews, benchmarks etc, I do think I am going to go Ryzen now. Frame rates may not get quite as high as an 8400 or 8600k but they are pretty close. That and I hear the AM4 set should be around for atleast a few more years so if I do want to upgrade say to a Ryzen 3000 Series then I should be able to do that. If I go current 8000 series Intel then I won’t be able to simply upgrade my cpu. Atleast those are some of the things I have been reading about. Now the only question is can I wait another month for the new Ryzens or just go with the Ryzen 1600. I’m itching for a new build!!

    My only concern with overclocking is that i have never done it before since I am new to pc gaming. Afraid of screwing something up

    Ok i will definitely look into the new Ryzen 2000 series. Thanks man

    that build would fall right at the top of my budget so it is an option I am currently using a NZXT Kraken for cooling.

    I am leaning i5 8400 but if i do that i believe someone mentioned to go with a B360 or H370 board? Can i ask how those to differ from one another and how those also differ from the previous B350's? Sorry i am still pretty new to the pc world. Still trying to get my head wrapped around all of the options. I will be signing off for the night but looking forward to seeing more input from everyone. Thanks to everyone who has helped me out so far, much appreciated!

    the frame drops is what i am having a HUGE problem with at the moment. On my current build (1060 paired with a fx-8350) my frames will run around 90-100 (all setting very low except AA and textures at high) but as soon as I go into a town my frames plummet to sub 50, unless i don't move , and then at random times just running in the middle of the map with nothing around me the frames will drop to 60-70 briefly then back to 90 then back to 60-70 and so on and so on. Maybe some of that has to do with the poor optimization of PUBG itself but i know alot has to do with my current cpu i would assume.

    next gen Ryzen are the 2000 series that are coming out in April correct? Curious what kind of benchmarks those are going to bring.

    FPS games are mainly what i play and right now i am strictly playing PUBG. Would love to get as close to 144fps at 1080p as I can.
  14. ThroatKrush
    appreciate all the information given. My current build (minus the gpu) was a hand me down that introduced me to the world of pc gaming. I really would love something that will give me a STEADY 100-144 fps in PUBG on high to ultra settings at 1080p. If the 1060 is even capable of that.

    is there an expected release date for the other chipsets? The 8700 is a little more than i wish to spend on a cpu at the moment. i'm really looking to go with Intel on my next build but i have noticed the z370's can get pricey as you stated.
