Is Ryzen the sh*t for Cubase?

Hi, I’m gonna upgrade my PC in just few weeks. And I got two options for it.

Things I got : bout 1,400$, Zotac 1060 6GB, SSD, HDD

1 : I7 8700K with Hackintosh

  • My friend recommended it for real, and he got also Hackintosh on 4790K.
    His suggestion is so interesting to me. Get I7 8700K, insert Win10, and buy another SSD for Hackintosh. Then I can use dual system for it.
    And he will introduce me dealer who made his system. It costs about 130$ for High Sierra.

But, because of the Intel’s new price policy, it cost more money, and I have to save money from cooler.
And I have little nervous about this ‘dual’ system’s stability.
…and 8700K’s core numbers too!
Ah, and I think I couldn’t afford overclock.

2 : Ryzen 2700X with Win10 Pro

  • Best price and options for now. But there’s no options about Mac system for Ryzen.
    If I got this, I can afford 470x board and KRAKEN X72 cooler. Then PBO will give me true peace.
    But I have doubt about windows yet. Maybe it could be my fantasy about Mac system.
    I have never used Mac system for long time but just few hours for mix a song but it was impressive.
    …and I could use my iPad more usefully.


    So I need help. Is Ryzen system great for Cubase? I believe Ryzen, but can’t believe Microsoft.
    It could worth?
