High-end CPU

I need a High-end CPU for gaming, 32GB of RAM, and along with it I need a motherboard it is compatible with. I play Ark Survival Evolved and Astroneer. Check my signature for the specifications of my PC. Components less than $750 and I live California. The resolution I play at is 1360 x 768. I also have Windows 10 Pro. If you wonder if I am doing a complete tower I am.

32GB of ram will take up 25% of your budget, I would suggest wait for Ryzen 6 core or 4 core series when it comes out.

You don't need 32GB of RAM... Like ever... unless you're seriously into video editing.

 

with that GPU (RX 470) I would recommend an i7 7700K if you're only gaming, and a Ryzen 1800X if you're gaming + video editing/workstation things.

 

keep in mind however, that you don't need a CPU this good to fully use your GPU.

something like an i5 7500 would be more than enough.

 

(once you pick what CPU you want at what price point, then contact me if you can't find a good mobo.)

Z170 boards are fairly cheap right now. Grab one of those and an i7-6700K and you're set on CPU/mobo. You'll need a CPU cooler as well, but you can get a great one (Gammaxx 400) for $15. RAM is RAM. It's stupid expensive right now, and it might be worthwhile to buy 16GB now and 16GB later if it looks like you're going to cut it close on budget. I'm honestly not sure you even need 32GB of RAM. Is your system purely for gaming, or are you editing, rendering or doing crazy math with it on the side?

I enjoy buying junk and sinking more money than it's worth into it to make it less junk.

For Ark Survival Evolved I want to have the graphics on Epic.

Quick benchmark video:

 

Epic starts around 11:00. Long story short, you don't need 32GB of RAM, you need a better graphics card. RAM does very, very little for graphics performance.
