a $246 2700x
And where can one find this unicorn?
Get the 8700K you're going to get more use out of it than a 2700x.

Plus, it's 10% faster at stock speeds. All of the 8700K get 4.8Ghz guaranteed. Which puts the 8700K @ 15 to 20% faster.
Same price or maybe $10 or $15 more dollars. It's $299 at Microcenter. Newegg will match Microcenter. Possibly Amazon.
Most people do not use the 2 extra cores. I think I read 1% of users do?
If your going to be on your desktop surfing, email, music, movies, youtube and gaming then the 8700K is the only real choice here.
Even if you were encoding 24/7 ... CAD rendering, the 8700K is still going to be right there.

BTW zero gaming. Mostly compiling and VM.
Which Ryzen would be comparable to a Core i7 7700?
That'd be nice.... Time to break the piggy bankI bought one of the 250 dollar 2700x eBay deals. Great CPU even the stock cooling is nice with it. Took awhile for shipping but it arrived brand new in box. Maybe eBay will do another coupon soon to compete with prime day?
