[SOLVED] Time to Upgrade 3570k?

[Brodotron]

Hey guys! Just wanted to get a general consensus on if its finally the time to upgrade my cpu. With the new Ryzen chips coming out as well as leaks on Intel's next Gen things are picking up in the CPU market.

I run a 1440P 144HZ monitor with a GTX 1070 Strix
I do a lot of gaming with chrome and other programs running in the background (if I can get away with it)

Just wanted to know if I should spend the money to upgrade my CPU, and dont worry Next step is the GPU, just waiting to upgrade to Ultrawide first.

Thanks for the help!

Since you seem to multitask a bit then the extra cores/threads will be beneficial.

just waiting to upgrade to Ultrawide first.

Nice!
Going 3440x1440P?

Yes! Depending on how much I want to spend on a GPU. I'm at a cross roads in terms of how much I'm going to put into gaming.

Your 1070 may handle 1440P UW ok depending on the game/settings, try that first before the GPU upgrade.
