Thanks for that. I have a HP Omen i5 7300HQ with 2GB Nvidia GTX 1050 (which I will sell to fund this purchase), will the above be significantly better?
I actually have a i5 3570K - 8GB, but with no graphics card too, was going to sell this as well.
Looks like the Ryzen will be a step up
the 7300hq from your laptop would be the equivalent of the 3570k with a slight overclock
tbh, the best value proposition would be to stick in a rx570 to that 3570k and see if you like the performance gain (rx570 is nearly double the performance of the 1050 in your laptop)
if you don't like the performance/want more...then upgrade the rest.
you have free shipping anyway. so nothing to lose.
