I can't find a solid answer as far as these chips for music production. Only for video editing and streaming. I'm building a new PC and can't decide which chip. I'm using FL studio and I rely heavily on battery 4, massive, kontakt, serum and a few other vsts. My cpu get's annihilated when running 3 instances of serum and goes to 117%. Right now I'm using a stock prebuilt dell optiplex 980, i5 650, 2gb ram. All I really want is to not worry about going passed 80% on massive projects. Also I know how CPU hungry serum is but I only use serum to make leads and plucks, no crazy bass shit. I do all that in massive and razor. Thanks in advanced.
New PC specs will be
I7 6700k/I7 6800k
16gb ram
500GB SSD
1TB hard drive
GTX 1060
MSI z710a
550w power supply
NZXT S340 Case
Hopefully this will handle everything I do for the next few years.
