I'm looking to build a new workstation/gaming rig (I know in the current market, what a moron) but I ain't paying anything over retail price, I'm in no rush. I was looking at the amd processors, the last one I used was the 3700x.
I'm now struggling to justify paying the rediculous amounts that are being charged for amd processors. And now I've stumbled on the intel i7 10700kf I don't need the graphics as Im trying to aquire a rtx 3070. This processor seems like a steal compared to something like that 5800x price wise. Would it be suitable for a workstation? I game quite a bit, have a 3 monitor set up, I remote a lot to pcs, and run coding software and remoting software a lot while browsing, watching videos and such. Is this processor good enough for what I'm looking for?
Just for comparison aswell the intel i7 10700kf I can get for £295 and the closest thing I can get for amd is the 3700x for £299, I know the 3700x comes with a decent cooler as I've used it before. So there's an extra price there but yeah.
Thanks in advance.
