Hi guys,
I'm thinking to upgrade my gaming system and I'm a bit stuck (much like Sheldon between consoles) on which side to pick.
I'm down to two options atm:
i9-9900KS and Ryzen 9 3900X.
I have an RTX 2080Ti and 1000W PSU (can't keep much else from my setup) and I will be playing on a tripple 1080p monitor setup
They are similarly priced (~£30 difference) and both are very good.
Intel pros / cons:
AMD pros / cons:
As I will be using the system primarily for gaming, I am leaning towards the blue side, but I would also like to have the extra cores there and newer technology, just in case I need it.
Any input is welcome, as I am stuck at the moment. Thank you

They are similarly priced (~£30 difference) and both are very good.
Intel pros / cons:
- Better single core performance
- Slightly better fps (~10-15 fps extra from the comparisons I've seen)
- 5GHz turbo boost
- 14++++++++++++++ nm
- PCIe 3.0
- fewer cores
AMD pros / cons:
- Better multi-core performance
- PCIe 4.0 support
- 16/32 cores/threads
- 10nm
