Compare Cpu Amd 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.

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.

This AMD CPU is the best I have ever had. Does not run as hot as I expected.

Coming from an outdated Intel CPU, this CPU is a huge upgrade from my old one.

It was hard to get a direct answer about how to get a 4th monitor to work on an intel based laptop. The problem is that the Intel CPU only allows 3 displays, even if you have a dedicated GPU in the laptop because the GPU isn't a full gpu, but just an extra chip that runs through the Intel CPU. Since it runs through the intel CPU, it is limited by the same 3 display output as the CPU. This allows you to run more than 3 displays on a single laptop.

this CPU is high-speed and runs very hot. this is faster than any Intel Cpu I have ever owned and right now it's at a great price paired up with the right ram and motherboard and GPU there isn't anything you can't do with this.

Caveat: I've only had the processor installed and running for a week. The processor price was retail, the shipping was super quick, and I appreciate that B&H notified me when stock was available as promised and I was able to follow the prompts to order with no issues. Packaging was sufficient and the product box was in perfect shape upon arrival. Installation was easy, I hadn't used an AMD processor before but it simply drops in the slot just like an intel processor. The AIO cooler install was ok, I found it difficult to align perfectly before tightening the screws so it slid around a little bit which isn't ideal for the thermal paste, but not too much... I hope. But it was quick and easy technically. I recall having more annoyances with the intel backplate style install on prior systems. The processor functions perfectly as far as I can tell, and scored very high on UserBenchmark software even relative to the same hardware in other systems. I haven't overclocked anything, and haven't done any real tough workload tasks yet... but so far along with the high end graphics card and storage the PC is insanely fast and snappy. So I think all is as it should be. Played the opening sequence of Star Wars Squadrons and performance was perfectly smooth, though that might be more due to the graphics card. Thanks AMD for the great product, and B&H for the great experience. If anything changes I'll try to update the review here.

AMD has finally, and fully, eclipsed Intel's performance in desktop PCs

Where to start....ordering was a breeze, delivery was fast. AMD is really just the best at the moment in my opinion. Using this for gaming and streams at the same time, still getting 140-160 FPS in PUBG,which is a very CPU heavy game. Still only using 70-80 of the CPU. Temps kept very cool with cooler master AIO.
