Looking at the LGA1151 sockets it looks like I can bump up for 600 dollars pretty easy...then I saw the LGA 2011-v3 socket...lower speed but a much larger cashe and price...about 2 grand for a mobo and cpu. Can someone tell me the gaming advantage of more cashe vs faster cpu?? Thanks, johnny

If you get a 7th Gen Intel CPU windows 7 will not download security updates. Microsoft broke it so you go to crap ass Windows 10. 10 lovers will be at home with fewer choices. Good luck JN!!! Upgrading is fun.

Then you can also get a crazy amt of of ddr4 ram with the savings Edited May 1, 2017 by Slackernet Awards
