The issue aint perfomance its pricing<br>Intel is practically a scam by now,(reply>), @Warm Soft Kitty No they were AMD FX so not real cores, when the new consoles get proper Ryzen CPUs they'll be true 8core/16thread. But anyway CS:GO is single core AF but performs best on Ryzen 3000.,(reply>), @Warm Soft Kitty Lots of new games are starting to use 6+ cores and this will only increase seeing as the new consoles launching this year are basically running a R7 3700 (8c/16t),(reply>), @Warm Soft Kitty Only reason you'd get the Intel is if you had an RTX Titan so couldn't use the money on a better GPU, you only played specific games that perform better on Intel and you don't care about future proofing.,(reply>), @Warm Soft Kitty Well the game I play the most of is CS:GO and that's definitely faster on AMD. But to check some other games I googled some benchmarks and they show both chips trading blows which means you'd be better of getting the AMD chip and a better GPU.,(reply>), @Warm Soft Kitty In what games? They're faster in most the games I play.
