Sorry for having to ask an upgrade post.
I have had for the last 5 years my nice 920 @ 3.4 and I was doing fine with it until I went and bought an oculus rift last month. Because of this I quickly upgraded my 970 Gpu for a 1080ti just for the better VR experience as I only have a 1080p monitor, but feel I might as well upgrade the rest of my system to something much newer.
I don't really have an idea what has come since my 920 platform and would like to make It a worthwhile upgrade, would I notice a huge improvement going to the I7 7700K even at stock? or is this just too much of a leap and I could save some money and go for something older? I understand AMD has just released their new CPU and Intel are about to do the same, will the above drop much in price if I buy now or best to wait?
I have about £800 for a CPU, mobo and ram but can stretch more if something is close.
I only game and do a little bit of video editing hence why my 920 was doing alright.
Any suggestions for a worthwhile jump?
