Hi Guys,
Just a quick question really. Out of the two processors above which one would you go for?
The i7 9700k is relatively cheap at 317 pounds (only slightly more expensive than ryzen 7 3700x sitting at 280-90). Now i haven't kept up with pc parts since i built the current PC im using so the i9 series is completely new to me. I don't overclock at all so wondering which would be more suitable for me. The i9 is coming in a bit more expensive for what seems like slightly lower performance but you get more threads. If you have any other suggestions on other CPUs please feel free to comment them. Could you also maybe throw in some suggestions of a mobo to pair with these chips or ones you have suggested.
My current specs PC are as follows:
Processor: i5 6600K
GPU: ROG GTX 1070
Mobo: Asus z170 Pro
Power supply: EVGA 750w gold
Ram: 2 x 8 gb corsair 3000mhz
Thanks in advance!
