    AMD unveils Ryzen Threadripper: A monster CPU with 16 cores, 32 threads
    https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2017/05/amd-ryzen-threadripper-price-specs-release-date/

    How much would it cost to change my moniker to Threadripper?

    Kaby Lake was such a small improvement over Skylake. Hopefully the pressure AMD puts on Intel will result in a renewed arms race. Ditto for AMD VEGA vs. Nvidia GeForce.

    I'm not upgrading from my 6700k for a number of years, but I wish I had waited for this.

    $20 to change your moniker.

    As long as Marvel doesn't scroll up in this thread, whilst doing research, and create the analripper character mentioned by @Further .
