The year of the CPU <3 greaatt post :)
Everyone from bargain-hunters to well-funded enthusiasts has something to consider. And if you’re already rocking a perfectly capable processor in your machine, there are still plenty of other ways in which you can upgrade your system. Let’s just hope that 2018 can keep up the pace!
Yes, it's a big change! Basically you get the same performance in 2018 for half the price, or less. Amazingly, this is true across the board - from budget CPUs to the high end. 2018 will be quieter, for sure. There'll be Ryzen+ early in the year. Intel is all out of options, my guess is they will move from 6 cores to 8 cores for the $350 Core i7 part.
