Should I wait for 9th gen or not

 

I am going to buy I7 8700K

Depends on your budget tbh.

 

z390 motherboards work with 8th gen as well, and are basically identical but include a bit better connectivity at a higher price. So if you want to save some money, go 370 with either gen processor. Likewise, the 8700k will tradeblows with the 9700k, since it's 6/12 vs 8/8. Not a big change in most real world cases either way, and 9700k will probably be slightly more expensive.

 

If you want the very best though, waiting for the 9900k would be ideal.

If you have deep pockets, shure go intel, but atm, pricing just places the components in a bad spot as you are almost allways better of getting a better GPU

Why not just get an R5 2600 at half the price for still solid gaming performance?

What's your budget/country for the PC and what do you need it for?

I edit my posts a lot, Twitter is @LordStreetguru just don't ask PC questions there mostly...

What is your budget/country for your new PC?

 

what monitor resolution/refresh rate?

 

What games or other software do you need to run?

Vegas or Premiere? if unsure I'd highly suggest vegas so you avoid the monthly fee from premiere.
