I like Tom’s Hardware (legacy) CPU Hierarchy guide for upgrade time.
https://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/cpu-hierarchy,4312.html
Just like GPU’s if you’re not jumping up a couple of tiers probably not worth
it. If you’re not in the top 5 tiers, it’s time to upgrade.

Yeah I love that site.
I can honestly say I haven't been excited about Radeon in a LONG time but I am
definitely interested to hear what the performance is like. It's going to drop
Feb 7th and priced at $699.00. If it clocks equal to the 2080 that's not a
great deal but if I clocks close to the 2080 Ti then it's a big deal.

Great site for putting builds together.

These guys do a pretty good break down at different price points.

I have the 2700x I built for my wife but she uses it for photoshop and it works
really well. I did have some issues with it before updating the bios though.
Idle with a water cooler is about 41 C and it can go to 57 pretty fast without
doing much. I personally would rather have intel since I game and from what I
have read intel has the best gaming processors.

I would lean to AMD. More cores, but Intel still reigns as a single thread
computation king. But multi threaded, AMD it's in top with more cores. That's
why the new i-5 have went up from 4 to 6 cores. I-7's are the same. Intel is
playing catch up and AMD is cheaper per core.

I am starting to put together my design for a new PC and have not been as
immersed in the hardware world as I used to be and would like to get your
thoughts on it.
* As for motherboard I will probably go ASUS or MSI but if anyone has
some strong recommendations I would love to hear them.
* AMD or Intel. I have heard a few things regarding AMD's new 7 nanometer
from Stephen. Is it really more powerful and cooler?
* Nvidia or AMD? For the last 15+ years I have only purchased Nvidia,
has AMD improved significantly enough? Is it worth dropping 1000+ on a new
video card or is AMD close enough?
Thanks!
