Hi all,
Any ideas how to really push this machine over the top? Before this I had a X99 with 5960x @4.4GHz for exactly 4 years so I want this upgrade to really shine because the old one was generally no slouch but had some areas that slowed down my work. The main problems was slow storage speed during work, multitasking felt unresponsive when using lots of browser tabs, Office felt slow when opening and saving files.
