It definitely outperforms the 8700k for streaming, rendering and productivity. As multiple cores/threads are being used in more games as well, I think you could well argue the 2700x is more futureproof. AMD has also confirmed that it'll be supported for its next 2 (?) generations of platforms, meaning that their processors will work on future motherboards just the same (whereas Intel requires an entirely different motherboard for every one of its CPU gens).

I'm probably going to get a 1080ti to put in the current pc with the i7 7700k. This will be the main gaming PC. I'll move my current 1080 to the new rig with a 2700x and then use that one for the encoding and streaming.

Pay less taxes and buy every component without a 20-25% tax on it? Hell yeah.

Pay less taxes and buy every component without a 20-25% tax on it? Hell yeah.Fuck me, what's the 25% tax about?It's a sales tax of 21% (not 25). It's far less for most things but for some goods like electronics, it's around the 20% mark (for comparison, some states in the US have theirs at around 10% max). The way that sales tax works (and this is the same for the US) is that it's only paid by the final consumer, not by anyone in the production chain. https://www.investopedia.com/terms/s/salestax.aspQuoteConventional or retail sales taxes are only charged to the end user of a good or service. Because the majority of goods in modern economies pass through a number of stages of manufacturing, often handled by different entities, a significant amount of documentation is necessary to prove who is ultimately liable for sales tax. For example, say a sheep farmer sells wool to a company that manufactures yarn. To avoid paying the sales tax, the yarn maker must obtain a resale certificate from the government saying that it is not the end user. The yarn maker then sells its product on to a garment maker, which must also obtain a resale certificate. Finally, the garment maker sells fuzzy socks to a retail store, which will charge the customer sales tax along with the price of said socks.This applies to both goods and services, so if I buy PC parts as a company for my work / business (which I can easily justify as my stream / casting is part of my work activity), I can buy them with an invoice and not pay the 21% tax because I pass it on to the next one in line (the company that hires me). I can probably save around $400 on a $2,000 PC that way, for example.

Quote from: Dietrich Six on November 13, 2018, 05:44:39 PMThat's extraordinarily high comparatively. Our sales tax is only 6.5%.Taxation really is theft.Perhaps, but it's a tax I'm happy to pay. Sure, it's pretty high but I'm fine contributing my part. It translates into high quality healthcare and education being accessible to all, great public transportation, mandatory paid holidays and benefits, good social care, housing and financial assistance for everyone in case of illness, maternity/paternity leave and stuff like that. It could probably be lowered a bit but I'm more than happy paying it.

It's just how sales tax is intended to work. Everyone in the chain of making a product or providing a service passes it on to the next one in line until it reaches the actual point of sale where it's the consumer who pays the tax. When I give legal counsel or am asked to cast an event or tournament, it's the person or company hiring me that pays the tax as I'm supposed to include it in my fee. It's simply how it's supposed to work, no loopholes or sneaky tricks whatsoever. I'm only exempt from the VAT on things I buy for the company (and can justify too, like a computer to stream or office supplies). Everything else (99% of what I buy) I just pay full tax like anyone else.
