1600X upgrade?

If you're getting it for dirt cheap then go for it. Compared to my previous 2600K I haven't really seen much CPU bottlenecking on my 1600X at 1080p.

TBH that is the only reason I'm considering it. After I started the thread I thought about it a bit and decided I wouldn't bother, then this chap (a friend of my boss) piped up about getting rid of his rig and here I am.

I will make sure to benchmark most of the things I play before/after. I don't do any sort of multi threaded productivity so that side of things is moot.
