(The main reason I have sold it is because of the DDR4 and M.2 architecture + up to date PC :P)
(according to my experience this is was the right moment to sell ,otherwise I would not be able to sell it in the future)
So now the hard part is to decide what to get
I was thinking to go with an Intel i7 7700k and an ASUS ROG Maximus IX Formula Intel Z270 (Socket 1151) DDR4 and wait until the new GPUS from NVIDIA , like GTX 2080 Ti, 2080 & 2070 or maybe the newest Volta GPUs With HBM2 & GDDR6 In 2018.
But then I see AMD Rysen on the rise and their new GPU VEGA and also their upcoming NAVI GPU Architecture in 2018...
In the past I had a lot of problems with AMD CPU and AMD Graphic Cards in Linux but not that much problems with Intel and Nvidia.
I guess I may have to wait until the release of AMD Rysen, check benchmarks and then decide...
well if you have any suggestions or recommendations let me know...
Thanks!

Waiting for the new AMD CPU and GPU seems to be a good idea... even if in the end you go with Intel / NVIDIA the prices should drop with the competition (if AMD CPU and GPU remain true to their promises). :)

i myself waiting for Ryzen to launch and some benchmarks, if the proce is right and benchmarks good for me then i get a Ryzen CPU from AMD with 8 cores and 16 threads probably. as for GPU i will still be using Nvidia for some time before amd drivers mature some more and all the corner cases get fixed.

I know that Ryzen releases at 2 of March but then I will have to wait for a descent AMD motherboard equivalent to Formula and so on. I dont know if I can wait that much :S:

Intel if you want good single core performance...And Nvidia because most big Linux ports support it and is energy efficient..

In my case stay interested in ryzen performance, ipc, overclock and how much vcore needs for 4.2ghz minimum
If ryzen dont stay close to intel kabylake at 4.8ghz to 5.0ghz with vcore maximum 1.35v
In my case stay interested in dual core + ht model only, however if intel launch pentium G4560 unlocked possible G4568 maybe buy intel again but if possible make 4.9 to 5.0ghz with 1.35v of vcore and most important dont pass 65 degress in operation (and if is possible disable vt instructions and intel sgx)
However in my case is more important single thread performance
