Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.
If you are buying right now and only play one game, you could check how many threads that game actually uses. If it's not heavily multithreaded then buying a speed binned 9600k would give good performance. However if it was me I would wait 6 months see what Intel and AMD does next.
Probably you would need a bigger budget for the rockstar cowboy game if you want to play it with good settings and resolution. With that budget you can play it on a console.
Well I kind of see what your saying, but it's just for me the term power user and 3400G just don't sit well together in 2019. Power user and high performance desktop to me say moar cores!
Overkill is fun!
Also a 1050ti is required for streaming Netflix in 4k
