Btw this is Philippine peso. I wont go i5 8400 currently because of the lack of cheap motherboard.

Mainly for gaming(Dota 2/Pubg/OW only because i dont play AAA mainstream titles) and some casual video editing. Iam planning on doing unboxing videos for youtube but i wont be doing 4k videos because Philippine internet is shit.

Please criticize my build, both will be running a 1060 6gb(which is very hard to find fuck miners)
Btw both build can OC correct?I dont know which boards AM4 is overclockable.

And the Intel one is 80$ higher priced than AMD. But Intel has better performance

Both can OC. I’d say intel because your priority is gaming...so...ya. Higher base clock speed

I would certainly rather have the 8600k build for gaming, however the ryzen 1600 build might be a bit better for a task like video editing due to it's 12 threads.

Yes both builds will allow overclocking the CPU.

Might want to edit your post before the moderators do it.

You forgot a cooler in Intel build.

You forgot a cooler in Intel build.

It doesnt come with stock cooler?

Nope.

Yeah forgot about that. None of the K sku coffee lake CPU's come with coolers.

Nope.

Might buy an AIO cooler then for OC also.

Buying an AIO cooler would cost another 80. so the price difference now is 160$. Man i need to save more. haha

Good air cooler should work as well. Cryorig H5 for example.

Hard to find that in my place.


I guess if im on a budget ill go AMD and if my budget can hold ill go Intel. Thanks for your helps.

6 fast threads of the i5-8600K will be better for gaming than 12 slow threads with the ryzen 1600.
A good 8600K chip can oc near 5,0, a good 1600 chip will oc to perhaps 3.9.
Few games actually can make use of more than 2-3 threads.

As to coolers, the inwin 301 supports a maximum of 158mm cooler height.
The cryorig H7 is only 145mm and is a good inexpensive cooler that will do the job.
The H5 referenced above is a very good cooler, but it is 160mm tall.
