Hello Fellow Ananders!
Yes, it's one of those questions. I apologize in adavance...
So with October fast approaching, and a budget of about $2500+ to spend, I am building a new gaming rig, but keeping my EVGA 1080 GTX FTW. It will be rendering games against my curved ASUS 3440x1440 100Hz monitor. I will also be buying 32GB of DDR4 memory.
So, with all of that in mind, do I buy:
I hear AMD Ryzen still has issues with gaming, and I am not sure that I will see the full 30% increase in speed with gaming with the 8700k. Also, with the 8700k, I haven't even seen any motherboards yet.
So please, let your opinions fly!

So, with all of that in mind, do I buy:
- The Intel 7700k proven gaming monster?
- The potentially better Coffee Lake 8700k 6 Core beast coming out in a few weeks?
- Or, (GASP!) go AMD and buy the Ryzen 1600x 6 Core?
