    i7 7700k Overclock

    i7 7700k temps

    Hello, i am fairly new to intel cpus. i just bought a i7 7700k just a few days ago and i put an xmp profile on. I was running prime 95 on blend for about 10 minutes and got an average cpu temp of 75 degrees with a hyper 212 evo. Is that normal?

    amd r7 1700 or intel i7 7700k

    amd r7 1700 or intel i7 7700k

    I am an avid gamer but i also often create and edit music that i record. I am very undecided between the r 7 1700 and the i7 7700k. I do not know which one is better and is the most future proof.
