Gorkie said in Ryzen?:
Thing is, im using my current parts after the upgrade to build a 2nd computer which I will be giving to my cousin. So I want to try and get it done asap, so question here then is should I make him wait till Ryzen matures into Q2 and such or should I say fck it and go Intel. My cousin is currently running a Single Core laptop for gaming and its about 10+ years old and a toshiba… I paid 600+ about 10+ years ago for it with 4gb of ddr3. Im planning to use my FX 8320 + MSI 970 Gaming Motherboard and a ASUS GT 640 2gb I have laying around (Maybe a R9 270X if it doesnt sell before hand) to hook him up.
Check the prices, I heard Intel did a slash in response to ryzen. If you can get an equivalent intel chip for the same or better price than your target ryzen, do it. Otherwise may as well go ryzen.
