i have an i5 4690k overclocked at 4589 mHZ stable and consistant. NO power saving mode. so its always on turbo 24/7 OC'd.

 

I forgot when i built my rig? 3-4 years ago? i dunno. but with my speeds ryzen 5 doesn't seem that great.  Maybe im just lucky and got a super godly chip because it overclocks so well?

At that clock rate, you have years of life left in it for gaming.

For someone with a CPU like yours, Ryzen's main appeal is the extra cores for multi-tasking, but is it worth spending hundreds of dollars if your current rig handles everything? That's up to you as an individual to decide.

I personally believe Ryzen is a good starting point for AMD, but Zen+/Ryzen 2 is when the chips should start to come into their own in my opinion.

yeah exactly wat i was thinkin. But i've always been a AMD guy...this i5 was my first intel chip.  Because well amd was failing.  Now they seem back to the good old days so my next rig will go back to amd my fav. <3

 

but im so impressed with my i5 4690k. 

 

If i needed a comp today i'd get the R5 1600x and oc.
