Hello guys, can't wait to see Zen 2 reviews. I think it's time for upgrade. Currently rocking Legendary I7 2600K at 4.7ghz on Asrock Z77 fatality Professional - M motherboard, with kington 2X8GB 1866mhz CL10 Ram modules, Also i am using GTX 1080 TI. And i have 4k monitor, so NO my CPU isn't bottlenecking GPU on that resolution :) Main reason why i want to upgrade is stability and speed. I work as a photographer, but it's my second job. I edit photos a lot, and while using Lightroom or something else, CPU is working hard. Also my system isn't so stable. It can only turn on on the second try. Also getting BSOD reraly, but due to ram related issues, tried using stock cpu and still could get BSOD. So yeah It's time to put LGA 1155 aside. Can you guys help me in choosing Best value Motherboard, ram and CPU(RYZEN ofc) :) ??? I was thinking getting X570 + Good ram and R5 3600 and if it's not enough i would sell it at the end of this year and maybe buy r9 3950x or 3900x. I am not sure. Any ideas ?
