Quote from NeoSlick :
I would vet all the devices in my system for unlimited compatibility, including Linuxmint/Mate OS nowadays. It is not war or that you can't run two or more OS's. Keep the OS you have and paid for; while you dual boot.

Recommended: 1, 2 or 3 in order.

...

And it's MANY more apps, by far. Complete ones, Free to you with no upsell. Why would you not even try it? Even someone not technical then has technical friends able to help you. The overall experience is easy to use and automatically keep upgraded. Not just when it is dictated to you; that you have to pay, AGAIN. Everyone should see this by now. Close source enslaves your computer choices. Where we go from here depends on what hardware you buy. Expose this need while you still can.
Sir, this is a Wendy's.

Ha ha. So then explain how your costs at Wendy's would not be more if they used Microsoft licenses corporately and/or in stores.

That's what I thought.

How about the taxes you pay. All gov parts and schools paying for that discounted software. Well tax payers are paying that bill. What's worse is only being taught Windows "Because it has all the apps and is not as technical", LOL.

This motherboard is a great place to start, to avoid bad firmware. And who ever is building is either buying closed firmware that will eventually bite them or they are not. I figured you knew devices are being selected already.

And this is the starting point it all takes place for years to come. To the extent you have and do buy well, will give you your choice. As do I. See https://Linuxmint.com free guide.

This is very tempting for me. I am leaning towards a DDR4 so I can transfer my RAM. Currently running a i7 7700k with Nvidia 1080. I game from time to time but I am more focused on multimedia and security home lab with VMware. Thoughts from the community would be appreciated!
I have this same CPU and upgraded from an i7 6700k. It's certainly more powerful in everyday computing and gaming. It's also more power efficient but that's because it's also a newer design. For something more objective, here's a comparison [userbenchmark.com].

i believe the x versions do not come with a cooler
My 5700x didn't come with a cooler and if it did there would be a cheesy thermal pad already stuck to it. Buy your own grease kids.

That's a very beefy jump and would be very worthwhile. Frankly with this upgrade and the 6700xt, outside of a spicy monitor upgrade your son is good for another generation. The important thing to avoid the hidden cost is making sure the BIOS of the motherboard is up to date to support the 5xxx series CPU and your son didn't draw the very rare short straw on an AM4 motherboard that doesn't support it. I don't know if 2700x is selling like hotcakes on 2nd hand market, but would be a very nice 8c16t to repurpose for homelab if there's additional parts around.

5xxx series introduced a big jump to single threaded performance which would benefit well for 144hz 1440p and up. If a 5600x is dirt cheap for you that is probably the better target or keep waiting for the 5800x3d to hit low 200s, which I think is possible when 7xxxx3d series releases.
This will depend heavily on the game you are playing. On average, the difference in FPS will be anywhere from 0% to 20%. Many games are still GPU bound when you hit 1440p, and even more so when going 4k.

It appears the Newegg code isn't valid anymore. As well, the Amazon code is gone.

I was on the fence and it looks like I waited to long.
