Hi everyone, I’m currently facing the pleasant dilemma of choosing between building a new system with AM5, sticking with LGA1700, or waiting to see what the next generation brings. In terms of price, LGA1700 currently looks appealing, but AM5 will probably make future upgrades easier in the long run.
How would you approach this today if the computer were mainly used for gaming and a bit of everyday use? Would you buy a solid system now or wait a few more months? I’d rather hear opinions from real-world experience than see benchmarks with 300 fps—you encounter those in real life about as often as you find an empty parking space downtown.
