March 5, 20188 yr I have the skylake build in my signature. I use the server only for playing movies from my media player. No transcoding. Is there any point upgrading to a coffee lake build? I may one day run Windows 10 on the server. Should I upgrade or still no point? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
March 5, 20188 yr Unfortunately, a Coffee Lake CPU won't run on your motherboard - Coffee Lake uses the same CPU socket (1151) but requires a new chipset. Therefore, since your upgrade would be more involved I'd wait until you need it - and it sounds like it's running fine right now. There's always something better coming soon... I think you'll want to upgrade before you try to run Windows 10 in a VM unless you are planning for very light usage.
