Hey guys,
So been contemplating upgrading my motherboard & CPU,dont get me wrong my 3770K is still good but id like something with more cores,maybe 6 or even 10 for things like game engines (Dunia (FC5) engine).
Now ive been looking into the X79 platform at the 6 core Xeons,i know its an older platform but seems like used they could be pretty good bang for the buck?
Not fussed on XEON and not been able to OC or anything like that i dont mess with that stuff anyway just always preferred 100% stability over getting it as fast as possible.
But yeah what sorta upgrade path would u guys recommend,I know theres stuff like Ryzen out now but dont really fancy splashing out 400+ on a new platform because DDR4 memory is expensive,but want something with a bit more ooomppfff than my 3770K.
Appreciate any reples anyway,cheers.
