Let me put a plug in for the AMD Thuban, looks to be ~ the same price as the 870 ....I love my 1090T with 6 cores on an ASUS 880 board runnning at 3.7 GHz...and Linux Mint,...runs cool and has the power for what I do.
I could drop a thurban in my rig but a comparable i7/i5 machine smokes it.
I’m a big AMD fan but intel is killing it.
At least AMD is smoking Nvidia
