I'm gona skip this generation completly and wait for the next in summer, hopefully they are already on 28nm node... this alone should yield better power consumption and better oc capability.

agreed to a certain extent ... not everyone has a 5000 series gpu .... for example .. me still stuck with onboard gpu .. or some are still stuck with gpus from 2 or 3 gen ago .. so its a good upgrade for those people .. but i do agree that its not a proper upgrade if you allready have a 5k gpu ....


but the oc headroom might make the difference ... still waiting for proper reviews to seal the deal ...
