Curious what you all think.
I've got a couple of rigs, one my friend is buying, and I'll likely keep the other one. (Unless a different friend wants to buy it off of me, and I can actually make some money off of it, then I'll build a Ryzen rig for myself.)
One has an i5-6400 @ 4.2Ghz, 16GB DDR4-2400, RX 470 4GB. (Used to have a 4GB RX 460.)
The other has a G4560 @ 3.5Ghz, 16GB DDR4-2400, and the same model RX 470 4GB. (Used to have a 2GB GTX950.)
Both rigs, with the new RX 470 4GB GPUs, now bench to 60+FPS in Unigen Heaven ("Extreme").
Just wondering which rig has the best bang-for-buck, either with the old or new video cards. (New cards cost $150 ea.)
Or if Ryzen is going to be better, and I should try to sell both rigs, and build a Ryzen rig?
I have a few additional "gaming rigs" with G4560 CPUs in them, that have older and in one case no GPUs. They only have 8GB DDR4 though.
