I edit my posts a lot, Twitter is @LordStreetguru just don't ask PC questions there mostly... Spoiler What is your budget/country for your new PC? what monitor resolution/refresh rate? What games or other software do you need to run? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Budget isn't really a problem, country is USA Then there's no reason to buy that CPU You can either save money or get more cores/threads with Ryzen, or just grab the i5 8400 if you're sticking to coffee lake, the 8600 won't be too much faster than the 8400. hell the R7 1700 is like $220 even.
