A 2700k should be fine as a gaming chip for years to come right? Pair it with a GTX 2080 plus GPU and should be good for 1440p.
Do you mean a Ryzen 2700X or a Sandy Bridge 2700k? Your sig shows a 2700X so I assume that's what you mean.

Wonder if we'll see another generation on AM4?
I remember seeing something where an AMD engineer said it was getting progressively more difficult to extract more performance from the socket without breaking compatibility.
I think AM5 or whatever it'll be called (AM10? ) is justified next year.
Anyway Im happy now with how it is running and at 4.15Ghz temps are maxing out at 62C when stress testing which isnt bad considering my temporary mounting solution.

Anyone on a reasonable AM4 can upgrade to a 12 core 24 thread (soon 16 core 32 thread) CPU with decent performance all round at a reasonable cost all things considered. How mad is that in the context of quad core i7s from a couple years ago? We all owe AMD a beer
It's different though. Intel's was architecture, followed by process. AMD's is architecture AND process, followed by optimisation.Any one notice now that AMD is the one with the Tick Tock cadence.
AM5, DDR5, Pcie 5 released together on the 5th of May at 5:55pm!
Watch it happen
Year 2025..
