Core i5 8400k is the most value for money chipset.I'll be upgrading my pc soon, im leaning towards intel 8600k
WoW! This demon must have made a hole in your pocket!i revived my main PC some months back (have an HTPC or Home Theatre PC too, which i built last year; made that too gaming-ready, but not as powerful). previously, it was just eating dust since long. i had got it assembled as a *gaming PC* back in 2011. since then, i have changed only its GPU, that too, in March this year. earlier GPU was MSI N580GTX Lightning III. poor chap, remained HIGHLY under-utilised and then got sold off by me. all-in-all, my PC remains highly, highly under-utilised; have got 3 consoles to game on too and usually they eat away whatever amount of quality-time i could wriggle out of my schedule and could have spent with my main PC . anyway, my PC config is as follows:
CPU - intel core i7-2600k
Cooler - CM Hyper 212 ('X' or not, dont recall)
RAM - Gskill.Ripjaws X 8GB DDR3
GPU - Zotac GTX 1060 6GB mini
Sound Card - Asus Xonar DX
PSU - Corsair TX850
Cabinet - CM HAF X (with NZXT Sentry 2 cabinet fan-controller panel)
Monitor - BenQ G2420HD
Speakers - Edifier DA5000 Pro
Printer - Canon MP287 AIO
Storage - Zotac 240GB premium edition SSD; a 2TB seagate HDD + several more non-connected HDDs (internal + external)
Mice - Steelseries Rival 100 RGB; Razer Deathadder Chroma
Keyboards - Mantistek mechanical RGB; Logitech G510S
Headphones - Razer Kraken 7.1 Chroma (have to sell); Audio-Technica ATH-M50x; Turtle Beach Ear Force PX5; Logitech G930; Steelseries 7H
and a couple of xbox controllers, a flying sim stick......

I'll see the benchmarks. Single core performance is also important for me.Core i5 8400k is the most value for money chipset.
You won't be able to extract the most out of the core i7.
I've ordered this from Amazon...AMD Ryzen 5 1600 3.2GHZ 6 Core Am4 Boxed Processor with Wraith Spire Cooler.AMD Ryzen 2nd Gen processors have been launched, with some performance updates and lucrative pricing and most importantly 12nm manufacturing.
It's not Ryzen 2nd Gen mate, what you ordered is 1st Gen. 2nd Gen processors are 2000 series.I've ordered this from Amazon...AMD Ryzen 5 1600 3.2GHZ 6 Core Am4 Boxed Processor with Wraith Spire Cooler.
Costs Rs 15,000. Hope it's good!
Check mdcomputers.in for price, 2nd gen is available. Cancel amazon order If it suits you and has not reached you. Order it from md...I've ordered this from Amazon...AMD Ryzen 5 1600 3.2GHZ 6 Core Am4 Boxed Processor with Wraith Spire Cooler.

yeah, I am trolling intel fanboys too much these days and enjoying it. Since a 200$ AMD processor defeats 450$ Intel processor, it's really a shame.Ah! Intel was riding its high horse without a worry thinking that AMD was nowhere in sight! Now Intel has got egg all over its face!! Lol! Intel may be inside but AMD is outside, knocking the door down!!
