Results are out. The quad core 7700k is better for gaming than an 8 core Ryzen.
I knew it was too good to be true.
I surely hope so. I also read that Ryzen only supports Win10. Does that mean I'll have to buy Win10? I have Win7.I still think firmware updates will fix a lot of issues

there are no drivers for windows 7 according to AMD.
That's a bit weird. It's not as if I'm using DOS 2.11. Win7 is still popular.
the next question is which motherboard.
the ASus ROG crosshair hero 4
or the gigabyte gaming 5.
I am looking more towards gigabyte.
their board is pretty impressive and it is cheaper than the ASUs one as well.
the specs are about the same.
I use Gigabyte Mobos. Very reliable and good for overclocking. I've read some crappy things about ASUS, so I stay away from them.

From my experience ASUS has terrible consumer support and their motherboards for whatever reason have a tendency to have CPU fan headers that don't register in the BIOS.
