My pc in the living room is a itx evga z97 with a g3258 at 4.2ghz and a Asus strix gtx 980 (i know bottleneck by cpu but was good price for used).
Mostly used for movies and internet but also play games like rocket league or simulation like cities skyline etc and would like to probably play more demanding games.
I also play dolphin with friends and that's why I had selected the g3258 back then.
I am considering purchasing a used cpu with 4cores like a 4670k or 4690k or may be not even k like a 4460.
Or if I would switch to a new platform. Like a ryzen r3 or may be r5 or even wait for next February for the new amd cpu. The new 8xxx is interesting too, but hate intel to always require a new platform, even that's it's same socket with different setup. Amd will be good until 2020.
The biggest cost with new platforms is the ram for ddr4 mostly.
What you guys think.
