[QUOTE="93803123, post: 834568"] Relative to $1,500 to $2,000 systems that gain the average user - perhaps - a noticeable, day-to-day 10 % increase in performance. The real-world, practical use difference is likely to be something like 5 %, which provides no meaningful gain while draining your pocketbook more than necessary. $600 to $1400 greater cost, for some little gains. It makes no sense for my use cases. As a side note, my i7 4720HQ 2 core system was faster than my i7 7700HQ 4 core system, even though that older system had lower specs across the board. The 4720HQ was faster to the extent that it was my favorite. It can come down to how fast the BIOS is as well as how well the various memory and data transfer components work together. [/QUOTE]
