3700 to 8700k for $200CAD?

Hello there! I'm posting this on the lemmy.ca instance cause I guess most people here would be used to dealing with CAD. So my situation is the following. I have an i7 3700 with a P8Z77-V that I use for 1200p gaming, mostly Paradox games. I wanna start playing Hogwarts Legacy and I definitely feel I need to beef this up. Last year I bought an AS-IS i7 8700 on eBay for $125, which I only got to test this week. I bought an ASUS B365M V5 and 32GB 3200MHz DDR4 for $165CAD. Lo and behold, the i7 8700 is broken af and I can only get to Windows by disabling every single CPU feature and using only 1 core. So I've sunk $165 on the LGA1151 platform. I have a chance to get an 8700k for $200, or an 8700 for $150 (and a bit of travel). Any suggestions? Thanks!

How long could you stay entertained with content you have saved offline?

    You definitely need to data hoard if you want to be entertained for a significant amount of time. I have downloaded most of Friends and HIMYM, if I put them on the background while doing other stuff, I can burn through them in 4-5 days. A multi-month quarantine would require maybe 20x the content?

    I thought that 1337x.to was still the better (or next best) option, is this not the case anymore?

    I don't think this exists yet, but for the leftists here, what do you think of having a lemmy community about imagining life in communism - or life after transcending capitalism and class society?

    There already is a lemmy PR proposing the community auto-merge idea, it's here: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ui/issues/1113 . It's very unlikely it can be implemented by Monday, though.

    Singapore in particular IMO, whenever they show the track from above (heli shots) it looks like a river of light that makes it look fucking awesome
