Current system:
i7 5820K
2 x 8GB Vengeance LPX DDR4 2666
EVGA RTX 2080
1TB HP EX920 m2
The HDD and GFX card I've upgraded over the last year, and now I'm starting to consider a CPU upgrade to 3900X along with 32GB RAM.
I game on a 4K monitor at resolutions from 1440p to 4K depending on the game. Playing Destiny 2, No Man's Sky, Witcher 3 currently.
It doesn't look like I would see a huge boost in single-threaded performance, so especially at higher resolutions, gaming performance might not change too much.
I do a decent amount of CAD design and rendering, a little bit of work in Lightroom, and quite a bit of multitasking. I think I may see a pretty big improvement in these scenarios?
Thoughts? I like the idea of an upgrade, just not too sure what the value proposition is. I don't plan to overclock much, and would likely go for a B450 chipset motherboard, saving me ~$100 over the B570 models.
