Buy now or wait?

[Moondrelor]

I'm about to buy some motherboards for my top of the line project I'm working on. Is there any reason I should wait on buying LGA 1151? Are we getting 10nm any time soon? Or even 7nm? Cannon lake? Wtf is going on. Feels like such a weird time for CPU's and Mobos

If you're waiting for Intel to go to 10nm you're waiting a while. If you are seriously asking about 7nm then you're waiting a very long while.

maybe amd will go 10nm soon Kappa

Yes the fabled AMD LGA 1151 10nm CPU is expected soon. He should definitely wait for that. Don't build another machine until then.

We talking like mid next year a while for 10nm?

Why don't you go ahead and tell us more about the project you're working on.

Budget/Country what do you need the PC for?

Z390 is coming soon

Phanteks Enthoo Mini XL DS.
One Micro Mobo and one Mini Mobo
Micro 16GB RAM and Mini 32GB RAM
Micro RTX 2070 or RTX 2080 and Mini GTX 1050 Ti (that I already have)

Just something I'm tinkering with. Haven't decided on CPU's yet

Dual system, one for gaming, one for hosting my nas, hosting servers for small stuff like terraria or csgo. Maybe even stream off it sometimes

Wait, gaming PC and NAS in the same system? As that is not a good idea

If streaming is your goal just buy a Ryzen 7 CPU, will be fine and still cheaper than Intel's 8 core while maintaining at least 80% of it's performance.

I think this should be in a different section. The New Builds And Planning. 

 

This is an exercise in hypotheticals.  You're kind of wasting people's time at this point.

Ok... I'm not asking for build advise. You asked what my project was. My question and my thread is asking about how soon are we getting 10nm chips or the next arc of CPU's from Intel. Not my fault you twisted the thread. You're wasting my time and your own time. Don't flame on me.

I'm not really here to debate AMD or Intel. My question was pretty dry cut.

Okay, but I'm pretty sure 8 cores is not really enough for what you want to do, and if you were going X299, X399 offers more cores at the same price points.

as for 10nm it's coming "soon"

It wouldn't be all at once, I don't believe I would need more than 8 cores.

No, that isn't what you were asking. You gave the impression of an impending build, but you have no intention of building anything soon. I won't expand on my opinion of your intentions. Just know you're only gonna be wasting more of people's time if you continue engaging in this thread that you have started. And you know that's true.

Just dismiss yourself from this thread. You're assuming a lot and frankly pissing me off. I have every intention of doing this build. I already have the case sitting in my damn living room opened up and ready for parts. Good lord.

 

The question.
"Are we getting 10nm any time soon? Or even 7nm? Cannon lake? Wtf is going on. Feels like such a weird time for CPU's and Mobos"

Your reply.
"If you're waiting for Intel to go to 10nm you're waiting a while. If you are seriously asking about 7nm then you're waiting a very long while."

My repy.
"We talking like mid next year a while for 10nm?"

Your reply.
"Why don't you go ahead and tell us more about the project you're working on."



You literally derailed the thread and then you have the audacity to say I have no intentions on doing anything and am wasting everyone's time. You're the epiphany of being a waste of time right now. Reported.

It's because what you're doing is impractical, inadvisable, and is going to be nothing but headaches.

The main reason you don't want your NAS and your gaming PC in one machine is due to data integrity, and usability.

Unless you meant you're just going to have a folder on your PC that's discoverable by other machines, and not an actual NAS/Plex box as that should be online 24/7 and ready to accept or stream data.

NAS : Network-attached Storage

Yes it's not going to be something that is on 24/7 but it's going to be something that I watch movies from on my TV when I want or share data between friends that come over with their laptops and as well as just drop all my random shit when I don't want it on my Raid 0'd M.2's. I'm not going for business use of anything. 

It's probably going to be only 4-6TB of storage.

However, regardless of what I plan on building, why does that have anything to do with my question. I'm asking about motherboards. My build isn't set in stone and I'm still working on those aspects of it. 

I want it all in this case because it's going to be fun to do and what is wrong with that?

Literally I asked about CPU Architecture and if I should wait or if it's fine to go ahead and stay on LGA1151. I didn't come here to get critiqued on my build that isn't even ironed out yet.

[Moondrelor]

This is something I'm doing for fun. Why can't someone just do something without someone saying "OH THATS WRONG AND YOU SHOULD FEEL BAD." For fucks sake. I just don't want to go out and buy two LGA1151 boards then next month Intel drops out Cannon. I've tried to research what I can but it's not very clear. So I was hoping someone had some insight on this subject. Obviously I'm the one wasting my time because everyone wants to blow things out of proportion on something that I'm not even asking for...

This is a PROJECT for a reason...

So it is going to be 2 seprate systems?

Why not just buy AM4 and have upgrades to possibly 16 core CPUs until 2020 and not worry about any of that.
