[SOLVED] AMD Vs Intel for Multitasking

[Giannis Savvopoulos]

Hello there, so I want to build a PC to use especially on Adobe programmes, and gaming such as CSGO, PUBG, GTA V etc. What will be better an AMD or an Intel CPU for Multitasking?

 

[Isokolon]

there's no point in going Intel right now except for the 9900k for some extreme gaming-only context.

If you plan to stream any 3700X if you just want a good chip 3600 Ryzen is sort of the King of value right now.

Just wanted to also say if you don't mind the lower FPS due to lower IPC then you could even go 1st or 2nd gen Ryzen they are still good chips if you are on a budget.

It all depends on your budget.Both intel and am has pro's and cons.Some idea's

Intel 9900k.
Pro's:
Fastest gaming cpu on the market.
Can Multitask really well.
Cons:
Runs like an oven(needs a good cooler
Pricy compared to what amd offer for the same price
Need expensive Motherboard.
Intel charge a premium for Hyperthreading
AMD
Pro's
King of Multitasking
Can play games fairly well
Cheap specially the 1st and 2nd gen ryzens
Can work on a cheap B450/x370 and i am not 100% sure but b350.
Comes with a stock cooler
Almost all amd cpu's comes with SMT cept the really low budget once.
Cons::
Still not faster than intel in gaming but it's a little Difference if you play on 4k
Comes with a stock cooler Can't really use it to overclock.
For optimal usage.Needs an X570 which cost an arm and a leg but only if you have pciE x4 Devices

That's just to name a few.Both the 9900k and the ryzen cpu's can stream fairly well.Hell my one friend was streaming dota on a 4690k
