I'm planning to upgrade my pc due to sub-par performance with my current setup. I use this pc mainly to play games and do some editing using premiere and after effects. The games that i play now is CS:GO at lowest settings (getting 140 fps and some fps drops to 90 fps (considered low for CSGO)) and PUBG at lowest settings (only getting around 40-50 fps with a lot of fps drops to around 12 fps). I realised that the culprit is my CPU bottle-necking my GPU and my RAM is not enough for video editing and playing PUBG which takes A LOT of memory. Therefore, i am planning to upgrade my CPU, Mobo, and RAM. My main goal is to future-proof my build so the only thing that i need to change in the future is my GPU
1. My question is should I buy the intel 8700 or should i go with the ryzen 1700? The ryzen is $100 (if counting the motherboard and RAM price difference) cheaper and i might use that money to buy an aftermarket cooler to overclock it.
Side questions:
2. Should I just go for 8600k and overclock it? considering that i have to buy z370 because h370 is not available yet?
3. Should I wait for zen+ which should arrive around March? (this sucks, because the only time i can use my pc to play games is at the beginning or the end of the year due to busy university schedules)
