it’s crazy, the FX 8350 still holds up fairly well, even in gaming, but the leap from it to Ryzen 2 is going to be like trading in running shoes for a Ferrari.
Intel had to rush out their i9’s because of Zen+, which really shows. I mean, they couldn’t even get hyperthreading to work on the 9700k, they actually had to remove a standard feature that they’ve had for over a decade.
