[SOLVED] Intel i3 9100f vs Ryzen 5 2600

[Marhrk]

The intel is cheaper and there is quite actually no difference in gaming performance i think, what do you guys think, i really i wanna know

The 2600 is much faster.....like twice as fast in multi-threaded apps.
Plus it has 6 cores instead of 4.
Games are using more cores these days.

In newer titles, that can take advantage of the extra cores/threads, the 2600 is superior. Max frames mean nothing, if your 0.1%/1% lows are terrible enough that is causes microstutters. 4c/4t gaming is dead, as is the 9th gen platform. Another option, if you can find them, would be an R3 3100/3300x. They are 4c/8t CPU, and Zen 2. For a low budget rig, those are a good choice.

Ryzen 5 3500x or ryzen 5 2600

Ryzen 2600 still, the Multithreading mean that cpu will last you longer on a performance level.

The 3500x is only worth it if its a lot cheaper.

What if they're in the same price

Still the 2600 in my opinion.

Its hyperthreaded, the 3500x is not.
It has 10% less single core performance but twice as many threads.
Overall its the better cpu.

2600. Think in these terms. PS5 and new xbox systems are coming out soon. Those are using AMD 8 core CPUs. As games get ported from those systems back to pc, they will probably want to use the extra cores/threads. So you'll want that extra bit of power.

a 9th gen intel i3 is better than a 2600? no

now, would a 10th gen i3 CPU be better than 2600? maybe

 

[ohio_buckeye]

Nope on the first part as 9th generation i3 chips are simple quads.

The 10th generation i3 chips are quads with hyperthreading. So about equal to an i7 7700 from 3 years ago.

Have a look. The charts show the 7700k and 2600. Should at least give you an idea.

AMD Ryzen 5 2600 Review

Today we're checking out the $200 Ryzen 5 2600, the most affordable chip of AMD's 2nd-gen processors. It's a bit cheaper than the 2600X we tested on...

i3 9100f do not need even an additional cooling system.
Box cooler working perfect, While with ryzen 5 2600 You need at least tower with 120mm (Gammax 400) to cool it, and performance is the same

The 9100f is not a patch on a ryzen 2600.

4 threads vs 12? Not even close

The ryzen stock cooler is also fine for the 2600, it doesn't suffer the same temperature spikes that the 3*** series does.

That said, I still like my 3600. It's under a wraith prism now. Thinking about the Gammax 400 though.
