I'm upgrading to ddr5 what's a better platform out of these 2

[steady arrow]

For the same I can get what's better I do video editing and gaming a lot on the same system at 1440p using a arc a750 right now but I'm upgrading to a higher end arc or amd 8000 or Nvidia 5000 when they come out

Or that

Basically there 3 different platforms for the same price what is the best

Actually 4

Btw this is in usd

7900X or 14700K would both be strong for video editing and gaming

14700K maybe a little stronger in both? But check some benchmarks to make sure

9700X is no slouch either

Core Ultra 5, don’t even bother

Yeah the only problem I see with 14700k is upgrading

[somber kelp]

Yep. I hope Intel sorts their socket lifespan issues out

I just made the jump to ryzen and I'm pretty happy with it. Personally, I'd go with the longer life platform in the form of AMD since they've promised multi generation support for the AM5.

Then if you want more performance in a couple years you could get away with just upgrading your CPU rather than your whole system.

I'm just upgrading cpu mobo ram and gpu rn

I have an 850w psu

So power is no problem

So it's between r7 9700x and r9 7900x

Ik the 7900x on paper is better but does the new architecture on amd 9000 make up for it

[somber kelp]

For gaming probably, for workstation I’m not sure. The 7900X has a pretty sizable core/thread advantage

And since the 9700X got a TDP bump post launch most benchmarks aren’t representative of the extra performance

[steady arrow]

Oh really

[somber kelp]

It’s nothing crazy, only like 13% best case in synthetic benchmarks. Tom’s Hardware said there was basically no difference in gaming

[steady arrow]

The 7900x does have double L3 cache

I'll have to watch benchmarks

As both are literally the same price

The 7900x itself is more expensive but mobo is cheaper

Will my 240mm aio cool the 7900x

@somber kelp

What do you think about reviewed motherboards

It is a nice one with 2 USB c

Refurbed boards are usually fine (my current rig has one) but a lot of people seem to have issues with whoever’s doing the refurb on this board

My pc has one right now to

This is probably better

Or this

[somber kelp]

The B650 one is the one I’d go with

The VRMs could be different but otherwise than that the boards look almost the same
