Sometimes I don't understand the Intel hate. what are the values of their cpu in your country? for me intel IS ALWAYS CHEAPER. 13600K is cheaper than 7600x. 13700KF is cheaper than 7900x. 14900K is cheaper than 7950x and now almost the same cost as 7800X3D which is the only cpu that matters.

not defending intel for their stupid generation upgrades and the past issues that made the hate insane on them. but it heavily depends on the price, its not about instability issues anymore these became old topics and got fixed months ago. intel offers decent Gaming expereince while giving SUPERIOR productivity experience. if you can cool their cpus tho, and I find their value being INSANE if it was the same cost or less.

Yes am5 got good upgradibility I agree on that. but brother. can a 14700K bottleneck a 5090? which is a 4k gpu.

that's without counting the B760 D4 motherboards being Cheaper with a DDR4 kits being as cheap as dirt. for those who is on tighter budget
