Why would you upgrade from a 3570k? you don't need to unless you need more cores.

PCIe 4.0 (which will be totally unneccisary), DDR4 standard, lower power consumption, better performance than Haswell/Broadwell. You know the usual :P

Skylake is so far away and technology goes so fast, can't comment on it.

Given the way Intel integrated GPUs are going, probably decent on-chip gaming performance at 1080p

CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 3700X - CPU Cooler: Deepcool Castle 240EX - Motherboard: MSI B450 GAMING PRO CARBON AC

RAM: 2 x 8GB Corsair Vengeance Pro RBG 3200MHz - GPU: MSI RTX 3080 GAMING X TRIO
