Question Upgrade soon, or wait?

Zen 3, would be a nice upgrade

I have looked at the AMD Ryzen 5000 7 5700G and it looks nice. The thing with buying AMD is the motherboards are hit and miss! If I do buy this system, I got to force myself into a high price gamer micro atx motherboard, $300.00!

Nah, $170 for a X570M Pro4 micro atx board.

Opted to double my ram and upgraded to a 3070 instead lol. Guess I'll just OC the 9600k and tough it out. I wanted a 3080 but after waiting for a year a 3070 at retail price was compelling enough to not deal with the newegg shuffle for one more day.

@Sonikku , is that your rig? That's some sweet RGB! I don't think that I've seen RGB extension cables in action before. Amazing!

 

[Sonikku]

Yep.

And it's the lian li V2 rgb cables. Biggest downer is you can connect them to your motherboard for software control, but it appears that only by using the button on the box they came with can you get the best rgb effects.

And yeah, better juice that 9600K for everything its got.
