Amd Ryzen Cpu Vs Intel

AMD has ways been my go-to because of price... I have only ever built 1 Intel system and it was awesome but EXTREMELY expensive compared to my AMD builds.... It's performance was decently better, but didn't really justify the cost (IMHO). The release of RYZEN CPUs (all generations) have been spectacular. This CPU, in general, is phenomenal. I'm coming from a 6th gen i7 and the difference is night and day. I did OC a little bit, but went back to stock because F@H didn't like it. I can run F@H on full, play COD:Warzone on one display and RDP into my work rig on the other (RX 5700xt) without a hiccup. AMD has really made a huge improvement and even with newer chipset drivers, I've seen greater performance. If you're on a budget, you can't go wrong with this guy... But.... The 10th gen it's are phenomenal as well and, now, comparatively priced. I recommend this CPU for budget workstation/mid-ranged gaming rig since the boards are significantly cheaper than on the Intel platform. AMD still has a long way to go, but they've made a huge step in the right direction and finally have a competitive stance against Intel.

The AMD Ryzen 9 5950X an outstanding CPU. It is capable of any task either gaming or video editing. For the price this is the best production CPU I have tested. I highly recommend the Ryzen 9 5950X.

The AMD Ryzen 7 5700x at $190 gives you the most performance per dollar. This is especially true when you enable PBO on Ryzen Master as this gives you essentially the same performance of the Ryzen 7 5800x. Using PBO yields a Passmark Price Performance (CPU Mark / $Price) of 148 for a processor that scores a CPUMark over 28,000. The 5700x temps stay under control when used with a good cooler - I used a Cooler Master Hyper 212 Black. With PBO optimized for 115 watts the CPU stayed under 75 C on a multicore Cinebench R20 run. In light office work it draws 35 watts at 37 degrees C. Great processor for anyone using an AM4 motherboard.

Not wanting to have to do a major system upgrade to move to AMD Ryzen 7000-Series CPUs (already having a great Socket AM-4 motherboard, I caught this Ryzen 9 at a great price and decided to do a CPU upgrade (had already increased the amount of RAM a few months back. The Ryzen 9 5900X was a simple upgrade, just remove old CPU and replace with the new on and a slightly larger Noctua HSF cooler. The system has seemed a bit more responsive, and I have the satisfaction of finally owning a Ryzen 9 CPU. This will keep me going for years with the current system, barring some new software requiring a next-generation system. AMD is the best!

Just installed it will a AMD Ryzen 5 3600 CPU and Radeon rx 580 gpu. Haven’t had any issues and it has been running smoothly and fast. No complaints at all.

IPC's were increased and it now smokes previous-gen Ryzen and Intel. I really can't complain. Best CPU I have ever bought!

The Ryzen 9 5950X is the king of CPU for now and the foreseeable future. It has taken the crown from Intel. It's performance is incredible, a huge bump from the venerable i7 8600K that I had been using. I can throw everything at this CPU and it handles it with ease. If you want REAL ULTIMATE POWER this is it.

I'll start by saying I have over the years gone back and forth between AMD and Intel with whoever has the best CPU at the time for my gaming habits. This later also expanded into some stuff like video editing and streaming from time to time. Though I still use my system for gaming 95% of the time. That said I also love to build PC's and typically enjoy the higher end enthusiast builds. Because of this I have over the past 10 years been using Intel's HEDT motherboards like X79, X99 and now X299 chipsets. Currently running an X299 Asus Rampage VI Apex board I had originally purchased with an i9-7900X. Based on this I felt an easy and now cheaper upgrade to the i9-10920X CPU would be the best route. Yes there are better AMD CPU's out there right now, but Intel still does very well in the gaming performance. So since this was just a CPU swap out for me it was the best way to go I could keep everything else in my system as is. This motherboard has been rock solid and only 2 years old at this moment. I was not disappointed, this CPU works great out of the box. Has very good turbo features for those that don't know how to overclock. It will consistently run 2 cores at 4.8Ghz, 2 at 4.7Ghz, 2 or 3 at 4.6, and the rest at 4.5 down to 4.4. Using Intel Turbo Boost Max 3.0 software you can force older games that use typically 1 main core to use your strongest cores first for the extra speed. If the program/game has great multicore support then you have the 12 cores which really is plenty for gaming and enough for a good balance of production unless you crunch videos all day. OC wise I have only messed with it some so far but it's not hard to get this CPU to 5.0Ghz on all cores with what I am using, a Corsair H115i Pro AIO water cooler.

Are Intel CPU's more expensive than AMD? Yes. Should you buy AMD instead? Not necessarily. AMD CPU's sometimes have stability problems. Furthermore, if you use software optimized for Intel, AMD CPU's won't be much of an advantage. I use my build as a video editing PC for Premiere and Davinci Resolve. I haven't yet used Davinci since I built this computer, but w/ Premiere the CPU performs quite well. It's very fast and stays cool w/ my Noctua air cooler. So, if you want a high-performing CPU w/ lots of cores and threads, this is a good chip. But certainly you should do research on the different CPU's on the market, as AMD has released pure beasts when it comes to lots of cores. Still, I don't regret buying this Intel CPU. It performs as expected.

Good reliable memory for AMD Ryzen systems.
