FIFY ;)

 

Ryzen isn't an upgrade in terms of gaming performance. If the OP needs more cores, he should get a Ryzen 7 1700, if he doesn't, Coffeelake is launching tomorrow.

If you are considering a 6800k, then definitely consider the 8700k over it.  Same amount of cores, but each core is much stronger.  In addition to those stronger cores, they will also clock much higher.  

 

As @PCGuy_5960 mentioned, they are announcing it tomorrow so at least wait to see what it's all about.
