It’s been nearly 8 years since I’ve built up a new machine. Before prices sky rocket more I’m considering upgrading. Just curious what the current 7 series intel equivalent is ? I see core series now ?

Mate this wonderful!
This is what I needed. I was wondering my current rig has 32 gb of ddr4 (two sticks of 16) higher speed.
Was wondering maybe it’s worth it to salvage that and try to save some costs as well.
Just wondering with the price I’m paying to upgrade is it worth whatever bottleneck that presents ?
I was looking at 13 - 14 gen but I remember the issues when they first launched. I wasn’t sure they were resolved.
If you currently have 32GB of ddr4, ain’t nothing wrong with going to AliEx for a 5500X3D (should be about $210, and yes, it’s fine to shop on AliEx) and Bezosland (or one of hardwareswap subs for a used one) for a B550 board.
Toss in a decent GPU and you’re golden.
