    Upgrading 4790k

    Well lets just drop it then, since apparently I was wrong to offer personal experience on the matter... granted this is with a gtx 2070, not the gtx 970 the OP has.....the 2600 is fairly neck and neck with the 9600k and again, im not claiming the intel isn't faster, hands down it is, but...

    Upgrading 4790k

    I wont argue this, I put my information out there based on MY experiences with MY hardware (4790k GTX 1070, 16gb DDR3 VS r5 2600 gtx 1070ti and 16gb ddr4) I was simply offering OP some personal experience for him to make his decision.... ALONG WITH notes of what he may encounter, such as memory...

    Upgrading 4790k

    Upgrading 4790k

    I went from 4790k to r5 2600 overall id say its a slightly better sidegrade…. you get ddr4, you get more cores, games seem a bit more stable (ie, pubg style games with a lot of things going on) but ultimately theres little performance difference as far as frames are concerned... however, I...

    a lot of the crashing issues are related to nvidia drivers (confirmed) roll back to 417.71 seems to resolve the majority of them... that said if your not using nvidia and having issues, likely something else going on.... but ya there was a post by the devs confirming known issue with later...

    AMD Can't Shake Off US Class-Action Lawsuit over Bulldozer "8-Core" Advertising

    you don't get to define what the designers determine is a core, amd took a gamble and said 'this will be good' turns out it wasn't exactly all that good, it wasn't because they claimed it was a 8 core but infact it wasn't, it was because it was just a poor design, combined with lack of proper...

    PC for me/son

    4000mhz ram really isn't needed unless you want to be on the bleeding edge, and be paying a premium for it.... 2400-3200 would be sufficient but that would still raise the prices somewhat, probably 160 ish for intel platform....200 for amd... gtx 1060 probably wont see for around 160.... unless...

    Terrible gaming experience with Ryzen 1700

    at 1440p, theres potentially a good chance your utilizing all 4gb of your vram, when that happens, it dumps it into your system ram, and if that gets used up, it dumps it to whatever hdd/ssd your using, however theres no way to know forsure without running some on screen display stuff...
