Intel vs AMD for 2024?

[voidion]

amd is probably the best cpu/gpu company for budget gamers

[tufab]

One of the reasons that made me switch from Intel to AMD in 2019 was the socket's longevity. It's crazy how I can still use my 2019 mobo to buy modern CPU's

[voidion]

AMD has been making big moves that gamers are here for

Microcenter had a crazy nice deal on a 7800x3d motherboard and 32g of 6k ddr5 ram for like $499. Best Christmas present ever

You don't always need upgrade options. Sometimes the best option is just a very good PC today and not pray for the future to come.

Who buys every year a new CPU for real?
Nearly nobody!

[pepehayer]

If u buy a pc today, u dont need to upgrade it for at least 4 years, that means u'll need a new motherboard then. I had a i5-7600k till this december and recently upgraded it to a i9-14900k (changed whole pc). No need to upgrade or change for 8-10 years.

[volentodorov]

The thing is, when I buy a CPU I dont upgrade it for 5 years. Im still rocking a 9900k. I don't care if the socket will be supported next year.

Amd just has a lot more to offer whether that's cpus or gpus. I just bought a ryzen 7 2700x for 50 usd, the equivalent of that would be an i7 9700k which on eBay, is going for almost 200 dollars

[gorgoramsi]

This is great info, literally looking into a PC and was already planning on the 7600.

If you're going high end and not planning to regularly upgrade it doesn't matter. Either way if you like me only upgrade every 4 or 5 years you'll most likely need a new motherboard by then either way.

I have an A320 motherboard from 2018 and I was able to upgrade from R3 2200g to R5 5600. Performance uplift tripled. AM4 is phenomenal.

[kamuiatmyrealm]

Still happy and content with my AM4.. still lots of upgrade path before i max out AM4

[jonathaningram]

I was using intel for a very long time and decided to switch to AMD this year. I can’t say it has been a smooth ride especially with the burning X3D issues and currently I have crash issue in games because of PBO I assume.

[BlackHorizonGaming_Official]

Being a DDR3 motherboard user, I can confirm I love my AMD A8 and 4gb DDR3 ram! Amd's the catch for me.

Edit: 69 likes!? Leave it guys it's the best number!
Edit -2 : I lost my 69 likes 😭😞

[mafin_official]

Meanwhile me, with a 3470: if a CPU can last 10 years, and still be alright the 5 year long mobo support is uselss.

[NeuroSpicyBrain]

I upgrade my pc every 6+ years at this point so I'm good with my new 14th gen

[comatoast]

I bought my intel last year, not planning on major upgrades for a long time but the writing was always on the wall for the way NVIDIA and Intel have been going.

[Ovalite]

We not gonna talk about how intel cpus are exploding💀

[nthan]

Gaming? 7800X3D, Editing? Productivity? Intel 12-14th gen 🔥
