How can you live with only 12 cores?

Plan is 32GB DDR4, 512GB NVME SSD, and 2070 Super. I’m still arguing with myself over motherboard form factor and case.

Not out yet and 4 more cores isn’t worth 50% more to me. I got a good deal on it with the cooler and Borderlands 3 and The Outer Worlds so I’m happy.

Is $250 more and only gets me 4 more cores.

I’m probably going to end up buying one of the Intel drives we have at my work at wholesale. That or pick up something cheap for Black Friday.

I do wish I still had the Athlon x2 Gateway that was my first gaming PC. That would make a cool sleeper case.

I didn’t know AMD made good things

Th ough I also know very very very little about computers. So there’s t hat.

AMD is absolutely murdering Intel right now performance wise. Intel has really slacked off the last couple years and it’s biting them now that AMD has caught up.

Ryzen is pretty good chip. The Ryzen 3XXX series (non-G models) is really good. When I bought by i7-8700k in 2018 things were a tossup, with Intel still beating AMD in single threaded performance but AMD delivering the cores. Now though AMD is right there with Intel while still offering more cores. They are in the best position they’ve been in since at least the early 2000s, and possibly ever. Intel has had a lot of problems with their manufacturing tech (which has traditionally been a strength), and it’s put them in a bad position.
