Definitely time to trade in my E5-1680V2 now and go 12-cores on the server. Haven't ran an AMD CPU since Athlon XP 3200+. And then there's choices now for desktop gaming builds.

Yes it did. Ryzen 3 is impressive. 8-core CXX -- it's about time.

652 single threaded... um no. Coffee Lake has to clock to 5.25GHz to get 630. Single thread is even harder to push then multithread, so seeing the balance shift that way on new Ryzen chips is a smell.

I'm still waiting for Chromium to run 120Hz in wayland. Hopefully MS will bring it.

8700K Overclocking

You'll probably have to dig up the old site (overclock.net) for methodology and more samples, but when I had mine, it took about 1.376v to reach 5GHz stable. And mine was water-cooled, so either I got a dud or they didn't clock very far beyond that.
Just watch out for AVX stress tests that will give unrealistic temperatures and hamper your work.
