If I had the extra resources to upgrade from my 3770k, I would still wait based on how things are right now. S&M fixes, DDR5 on the semi-distant horizon... just seems like if you're good with what you've got, no need to jump into a new project and the (at least) hundreds of dollars that await.

My typical jonesing for upgrades stick to a new GPU and bigger SSDs. But I'm also not playing the newest games at this point, so my whole position is invalidated on AT.
it s not a good time to spend on pc i agree

Sandy Bridge CPUs are still performing excellent (minus the graphics) for new Windows 10 1803 builds. Pentium G630s are now less than $5 each.
