Hey guys just getting ideas to build my new system. I stay pretty up to date on GPU (Nvidia), however, CPU I have not been following for years now.
I currently have an Intel i7 8700 3.2Ghz. The AMD Threadripper 3Gen is a bit out of my price range. I was thinking 1Gen or 2Gen Threadripper 12 core/24 threads. I mainly use my windows computer for gaming.
I am under the impression that Threadripper is great for rendering and Multi program processing. While the gaming Industry has not quite caught up with multi-core support it appears to be coming along with the newer games.
In the event that I decide to purchase a Threadripper in theory do you think that processor should be good for say the next 5-7 years for gaming?
I am assuming either one of those processor would be an improvement over my current processor?
Lastly, would it be better to stay with Intel or maybe AMD Rayzen 7 or 9?
Thank you in advance for your thoughts and time. Nevertheless, while I know this question can have many different variables, it is much appreciated.
