    Yep, I was ok with the price and just put in the order, I got it for $40 off I can't wait till it comes in. I thank you again for your help and will mark this as resolved.

    Yeah it has those macro keys, if you used them on the G710+ it's probably better than the K70mk2, and if you're okay with the price then I suppose it's the most similar replacement

    Somewhere between January and March it'll be released.
     
    There's a huge triangle on the side you can look at to make sure you don't misalign the pins, and on AMD CPUs the pins are a lot bigger and are straight instead of half bent on Intel, so they are hard to bent, and if you misalign they won't fit inside the socket.

    I game at 1080p on a 144hz monitor although at some point I will make the jump in resolution. I tried using Nvidas shadow play in the past but I saw a loss of about 30-45fps in games. Still reasonable as I was able to achieve 144+fps but also not stellar. Especially in games like PUBG where my machine really chugs for some reason despite me lowering a ton of settings. Yea upgrading storage isn't an issue I just need a fast NVME drive for the OS and so that when I am bringing over say a 4K video over to edit down for a project it doesn't take so long just to do things on the timeline. Also thank you both for replying I appreciate your guys time.

    If you can suffice, Zen 2 will be releasing relatively shortly and should provide substantial gains in productivity and gaming for a reasonable price, but if you must upgrade sooner rather than later, I'd go with a Ryzen 7 2700 and overclock it to the clocks of a 2700X or an Intel Core i7 8700K if you can find one for a reasonable price and in stock. Both will give you extra cores and handle productivity well with Ryzen having the advantage in virtual machines/streaming and Intel having the advantage in the Adobe suite. Get some 3200mhz DDR4 and a good mb and you'll see some substantial gains in some areas. But again, if you can, wait just a little bit longer and you won't be disappointed.
     
    Also, I can direct you to a parts list or video build guide for such if needed.
