[Disclosure]

so i planning to upgrade my cpu and motherboard and need to decide between these two . i mostly play open world like rdr 2 , forza horizon , and dying light 2 when it came out . which you guys think better , both price is quite similar

100% the Ryzen 5900x, both perform near the same in games except the Ryzen has 4 more cores. Which at that price point only getting 8 cores is a bit of a rip off.

For high end CPU's Ryzen is always the better purchase.

Go 10900k and Overclock, it beats both.

Probably good idea since 11900K is kinda stinker compared to 10900K:

If mostly for gaming, 5800X + decent B550 board would be fine.

Ryzen 5990x ! DEATH TO INTEL! Dont buy anyhing from them ever again!

At this point with new chips just around the corner with proper support for ddr5, new PCI standards and direct access stuff, seems a hell of alot of money to waste right now especially with prices like they are.

When you look at the price and very high lattency on initial ddr5 kits (like always) it won't be much faster than high end ddr4 (with 16GB 4400 c17 b-die kits costing like 120 bucks) it's not going to have any real improvement.

I also doubt 12th gen will be much faster, it's still going to be 8 main cores with 4 small cores for minor background tasks, this WILL have higher interconnect lattency than 11th gen, which is already around 50% slower than 10th gen.

I don't see direct access being/having a big impact on, well, basically anything, though I'll be happy to be proven wrong, advances are always good.

If you want really high fps on ryzen, I'd go to 5950X, the 11900k is just bad and as I said, the 10900k matches or beats both in just about every game once overclocked and running fast ram.

Out of the box, ryzen wins.
Overclocked /tweaked 10900k wins.
Ignore 11900k.

Also the 10850k a d 10900k can be found pretty nicely discounted if you look around still just about.

If that is your only reason to buy them - Then 100% neither.

Haha
Budget goes low
I3 10th gen
Nice


Back to main post
I think Ryzen 5900x shoud be good if you are playing games but in the same time you are using recording programs and other stuff

so most of you said go for 5900x , any good motheboard reccomendation?

If all you're doing is playing games then the 5900x isn't worth it. It's more expensive than the 5800x which offers 99% of the general performance. Honestly, the 5600x is more than capable for offering what you want here, that money is much better invested into a better GPU, or anything else.

But aye, look at benchmarks online, it takes minutes and is much more useful than asking questions here.

Spending £250 on a 6 core CPU is idiotic.
