I’m just a piece of meat.

I just bought a new car on the 31st of December.. It was exhausting. But we
got it for only $1300 over a list price of a 2 year old same model/trim. I
bought my Volt used, but the dealership didn't budge more than $500.. it was
one of those set-priced dealers, though.

I used truecar/costco, all communication through email at first and just
basically had a dealer battle royal that spanned a few days until the
desperation of the last day of the year kicked in and I got what I wanted.

Rant: Nvidia pisses me off. The fact that they release their 'next gen'
cards and their almost-2 year-old 1080TI trades blows with the 2080
proves they're just fleecing us. .. don't even get me started on the
2080ti 'titan' crap.
I mean, I'm getting great mileage out of my 1080ti, it just sucks seeing
such a small leap in performance.

I just read the benchmarks that AMD released on the Radeon VII and they
are lower than a 1080 Ti and more on par with a 1080.

I'm holding off to see what Zen2 brings this year. Rumors are that
they'll be pretty good, but we'll see what happens. If it's not a big
difference, I'll probably go classifieds and low-ball someone in need
of cash like I've done in the past and save a grundle of $. I won't be
upgrading until Fall, after Intel has had time to reply to AMD.
I don't have much faith in AMD GPUs, though. I was hardcore Team Red
when they could compete. My last AMD cards were 2 290x's then I went
980ti and haven't looked back, sadly.
Their new GPU isn't expected to be super awesome at games, it's more
oriented towards machine learning, etc. Rumors have that it'll be in
short supply, too.

I like Tom’s Hardware (legacy) CPU Hierarchy guide for upgrade time.

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.

I have the 2700x I built for my wife but she uses it for photoshop

updating the bios though. Idle with a water cooler is about 41 C

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

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!
