Change your name.
I should change my PC too then I guess. I bought and FX on 2016. If that doesn't prove I'm an AMD fan boy, it proves I'm a complete idiot. And my mom says I'm not an idiot.
Change your name.
Such as the top of the line 8 core AMD Zen CPU to the top of the line 8 core Intel i7 CPU, where the Zen outperforms it by a hair.What do you mean by comparable CPUs?
I think AMD is behind on terms on technology and development. Just now using 14nm transistors. The same happened in 2011 when they launched the Bulldozer. Intel had been using 32nm since 2008 (with the Nehalem architecture). I like AMD, but it´s really hard to compete with specialized monsters like Intel and NVIDIA at the same time. Only AMD can do that and of course that is more than huge. But is still only good on low budget choices. If you have the money you should always go Intel.
DDR4 is just a tiny bit better than 3. DDR4 maybe gets you two more fps on games.My point still stands, the Skylake platform has much greater upgrade-ability than the ancient FM2+ platform. I mean heck, it still uses DDR3.

The main benefit is higher capacity DIMMs at this point in time.DDR4 is just a tiny bit better than 3. DDR4 maybe gets you two more fps on games.
It´s still an old outdated platform and not worth the money.
It's a 2013 CPU! That's not very old, and a quad core at that. The higher resolution you play at, the games are actually less CPU intensive.Actually 4 decent benefits.

My point wasn't that it was dramatically better for gaming, but that if you buy DDR3 now you won't be able to reuse that in any future build. DDR4 will be common for several more years.DDR4 is just a tiny bit better than 3. DDR4 maybe gets you two more fps on games.
A 3.5 year old CPU is old when building a new rig. It may be a quad core, but it can't even compare to a new dual core i3 in most cases.It's a 2013 CPU! That's not very old, and a quad core at that. The higher resolution you play at, the games are actually less CPU intensive.
