Not a huge gamer but I dabble. Use a lot of Adobe products , and started getting into video editing. I have a 2080ti that’s been just a beast over the past two years. I have the lga2066 socket 7800x , and it’s been great but looking to upgrade to something a little faster , any suggestions on a lga2066 intel proc for my asus x299-xe mobo ? I am maxed out with a Gskill DDR4 4000mhz 128gb kit (8 sticks)

Thanks in advance yall.

    You could buy a used 7980XE/10980XE and easily 2X your CPU performance for decently cheap (~$500). Or upgrade like other folks are saying but it’d cost more.

      I would get a 7980xe like this guy said. You can get them for under $300 pretty easy on eBay. More than double the cpu performance in multi core.

      You got the lowest processor on this socket, so I definitely wouldn’t jump ship. Just upgrade and add 12 cores.
