I held on to my AMD Athlon XP CPU until the very first Intel i7 (Nehalem) release in 2008, which was a historic ground breaking leap in CPU microarchitecture.
For years (and years) my overclocked 2008 i7 CPU could beat any desktop PC system available at local stores... Roadmaps showed no such next leap before Skylake... and now Skylake is here in 2015.
Price-wise, what is the best price to performance Skylake CPU, what are reliable Skylake motherboards and what is the DDR4 price to performance outlook for the near future?
