Within a tenner, not saying in which direction.

Thanks mate! Close to what I was thinking.

I can feel my will power crumbling... I don't need to change my 1700 yet...

And if you just change the processor, you will be thinking "should've changed the board as well".

Personally, unless reviews show big uplifts from the X470 chipset I'll be sticking with the Gaming 5. Been solid for me so far and part of the attraction was the promised compatibility with new processors, lets put that to the test!

I think that's the great thing about this release - upgrade is a choice and not forced, at least gives consumers a chance to see which mobo pans out the best before doing the upgrade!

The thing is just changing the CPU is a fairly cheap upgrade, they are not expensive CPU's and you get half or more your money back from selling the old one on the used market, that makes it even harder to resist.

Stop that kind of talk now, I am holding out for generation 3 that comes after

The reality of it will probably more like;

2700X £329
2700 £299
2600X £229
2600 £199

You've got the OCUK prices a bit low

Fixed it for you

2700X £349
2700 £319
2600X £259
2600 £219

Does anyone know if these CPUs are likely to sort coldboot issues? Only issue I have with my setup but it's a pain in the ***.

Zeed · 4 Apr 2018 at 16:38

I'm like whats the point of changing x370 to x470 ??? Its not ******* intel that was whole idea of Ryzen !!

If i was to change cpu+mb every freaking year id stay with intel !!!

subbytna · 4 Apr 2018 at 16:39

In all seriousness though. The AMD setup is easily the better bang for buck option now. INTEL will need to drop prices to compete again.

thats a Motherboard/bios not cpu issue. They fixed it on C6H not had cool boot in MONTHS think since 1701 bios
