Hello,
i am an enthusiast gamer, i'm searching for an high-end desktop processor to power my gtx 1080ti. I mainly play the newest triple a games on my 3440x1440p Ultrawide so when a new beefy grahicscard comes out it will be bought also.
But now to my question. I am using a ryzen 7 1700 @ 3.8 Ghz right now but i want to switch to the high end cpus.
It should be mainly for gaming but i am also a multitasker with lots of tabs in chrome. i also want to start game capturing.
i heard that the threadripper is a beast at heavy use like rendering and professional workloads but isnt as fast as 4.5 ghz i9 7900x even when its overclocked to 4ghz which looks like its border.
I will use my current Corsair 3200Mhz Ram (4x8Gb)
My budget is about 1300€
AMD TR 1950X + Asus ROG x399 gaming-e = 1180€
I9 7900x + Asus Prime x299 Deluxe = 1250€
Thanks for you help
