[H] Thoughts the the next processor upgrade

[Steve Tomporowski]

I've started looking at the next upgrade for my main box. Currently I 
have an i7-4770K with 24GB on an Asus Maximus VII Hero.  I already know 
that the next upgrade will probably require a new set of memory.  
However, I've been looking at CPUs and have to say that I'm underwhelmed 
when comparing my current system versus the new processors.  It seems 
that for an investment of over 500 bucks, the most I can hope for is 
*maybe* a 15% increase in processing power.  Right now I don't do any 
high end gaming, the most rigorous stuff I do is running a lot of soft 
synths in Cakewalk Sonar.  What's everybody's take on picking a new 
processor?

Thanks...Steve
