Hi everyone!
Current system is listed in signature, basically built around a first-gen Ryzen 7 1700 (non-X). Now, I am wanting to start working towards upgrading, so I was wondering...can I save quite a bit of money and get a better CPU cooler and overclock to 3.8-4GHz (currently stock) and be good for a while? My uses are gaming (older titles, nothing really new) and photo and video editing. I figure it still has plenty of life left being a 8-core, 16-thread processor.
Thank you for all your opinions!
