[QUOTE="SHvFl, post: 773299, member: 30916"] If you can wait until mid next year new amd cpu will be out that will probably be a lot better. If you can't wait and want something to last go with the 2700x and it should be fine for 60hz. Don't expect 200 fps though or something. As for lasting 7 years none can predict how games will change in that time and if current cpu will be able to deal with them at any good level. After the 3-4 year mark your cpu should be irrelevant on high settings, which i assume you use, regardless of what you buy. tl;dr go with the 2700x if you can't wait but don't expect miracles [/QUOTE]
