hit me up.

Sounds like you might be enough of a power user to benefit from the 3900X Ryzen, which is the 12c/24t part. Things a BEAST for not that much, around $500.

You're gonna love having M.2 nvme SSD(s) if you've never had 'em ... they freaking rock ... everything is so snappy.

P.S. your Z87 is downright modern compared to the X58 Asus Rampage III Extreme I just took out of my case (well, next generation anyway).
