AMD or Intel, Zig Forums? And why.
AMD or Intel, Zig Forums? And why
for 99.9% of people amd is the clear winner
that last .1% that needs the very slightly better gaming performance should consider intel
AMD by a mile
amd, more cheaper, dont look for the minimal performace comparation with intel, you dont need it. also intel get a lot of vulnerabilities in the lasts years.
sorry if my english is bad, ha ve a nice day.
I want both in a milfboard that can do 69 frames per second at over 9000p resolution.
stfu, you're wrong bro
tedious, why not just make a mac

Intel can go to 5ghz
AMD, more for your money, doesn't have a million security flaws like Intel.
If you wanna be practical or you need to do productive shit: AMD
If you only care about getting them frames and money is not a problem: Intel
FX CPUs can reach 5.0ghz.. Doesn't make it better than Zen 2 CPUs.
It's irrelevant if you're gpu bound. Unless you're running an rtx 2080ti, you're wasting your money on Intel, and an amd 3300x is all that you really need for gaming. Considering the price gouging on that chip, a 3600x can be had for ~$200 on newegg right now.
I went AMD on my latest rig, and yes its a prebuilt (everyone point and laugh). The performance difference is negligible and the savings let me upgrade to faster RAM
when do you ever need to go 5ghz?
esports, or if you insist on having the lowest possible frame latency and highest framerate
it's not worth the money, especially since you're also now talking high end motherboard and high end cooling
faster RAM is THE most negligible performance increase there is, as long as you are running current gen RAM and you have enough of it (16GB is more than enough for most things). Regarding the OPs question:
Until the Ryzen CPUs came out, Intel processors were superior most of the time, and while they are more expensive, they were better ENOUGH to be worth it. Since Ryzen CPUs came out, AMD really seems to be great bang for the buck, especially if you know how to pick components so your CPU is not the bottleneck.
i want to hear about alternatives
AMD, better performance for money
If you're running an AIO and have good VRMs on your mobo. I'm running my 3700x at a stable 4.2ghz on an Air cooler (cooler master MA620M) and an Asus rog strix rtx 2070 super and I'm already gpu bound at 1440p. A 9700k @5ghz would not benefit me.
But I was able to get RAM with lots of RGB and we all know that makes everything better. Oh, and I could afford a nicer mobo
ive always been an amd fan
only ever had intel in a laptop and my pentium 3
Bro just go ZhaoXin. I hear the new KX-U6880A is great, just check out some reviews. Chinese X86 is the future.
And with these chips the security flaws aren't a bug they're a feature
Get used to seeing this a lot more, it's the Chinese Century. No American backdoors either.
I bought a i9-9900k.
It only has ONE PCI-E X16 lane.
I'm running NVLINK / SLI, at 8x, and no NVMe storage.
I'll never buy Intel again. My 1st gen i7 980 had more lanes! Threadripper all the way.
Not for amd. Higher frequencies benefits the infinity fabric. I run mine at 16-19-19-38 @3600mhz on a 3700x @4.2ghz.
At this point who gives a shit. Our data is already being mined/given away to Google, Facebook , and a ton of faceless corporations. What's one more leech going to matter?
Even that last fraction of performance evaporates if you don't use Intel's compiler on builds for AMD chips.
I don't want a chip that is going to burn my house down and turn on the webcam and stream the video to China while it's burning.
I bought an FM2+ mini ITX and an AMD A10 for a super small build back in 2014 or so (r9 380) and it seems like the a10 is as fast as you can go without a new socket.
Is that correct? I couldn't find anything but a8 and such on Newegg when searching for socket fm2+
Intel all the way. better single core performance for gaming, runs cooler and is generally more reliable than AMD. AMD is for poorfags
