^ agreed 

And the answer is no 

The ipc deference won't really Change alot and the imc just got a bump in base frequency 

As for am upgrade just get a 3600 and like a tomahawk and that will be a significant upgrade

Hi i found someone selling a 2nd hand i7-9700k for around €250, i currently have i5 7600k that i could sell and get it for cheaper which would make it a good option.

 

Would this jump make any difference to my system or should i just go with a new Ryzen bulid?
