Was looking at a computer build
 
But they are releasing all new toys

intel 8700k

Asus Maximus X Hero Z370

I hear a new graphics card coming. Looking like a more affordable one.

Was looking at 7700k, Maximus 9, wondering if I should wait little now.

Yooxra 10-07-2017 05:09 AM

Yeah, i'm gonna wait. At least another month and see everything that is released and proper tests.

Yooxra 10-07-2017 06:55 AM

Looks like they coming out with a 1070 ti card by the end of the month. Wonder how good, pricey it will be.

Unless you're planning on gaming in 4K, I think the current (and even the last few) generation of tech is more than you'll need for years to come. My 980 and i7-4790 still demolish all games on max graphical settings at 2560x1440. Nothing will bottleneck you until 4K, and maybe to a lesser extent VR (although every VR game I've played is kinda crap).

If you just want to buy the bleeding edge, I suppose that's a different story.

Still thinking about it, undecided atm.

Memory prices are way out of hand.

I hadn't looked until now, but yeah. Looks like DDR4 is about twice as expensive as DDR3. From my limited reading, doesn't seem worth it either:

Though if you're buying a board that only supports DDR4, then I guess you don't have much of a choice.

Yooxra 10-13-2017 01:59 PM

Wasn't gonna get to crazy. Was just thinking maybe 16k reso
