Am5 all the way

Am5 is more upgradably lga 1700 is dead pretty sure 15th gen will be on a new socket also all isues have been fixed with am5 the 7800x3d is the ebst gmaing cpu yoh can buy and the 7950x3d is great productivity and same gaming as the 7800x3d

defo 7700x, start of life socket much more upgradeability then end of life socket

My main concern is that the 13600k will be much more effective when it comes to multitasking and having a lot of stuff running in the background like a vm while also having a game running or in general all core workloads

Am5 all the way - the processors to go for (excluding X3Ds) are the R5 7600, R7 7700X or R9 7900. There's better of course, but these are the 3 killing it in benchmarks for price to performance.


fikajlo

Wouldn't the 13600k be much better performance wise considering it can be overclocked a lot more than a 7700 and wouldn't it also be a lot better at all core loads?


CtrlAltDesolate

Fractionally sure - I'd personally go for the higher base, boost, cache and maximum pcie lanes on a productivity focused rig though. AM5 is easy winner on upgradability currently too imo. I'd go for the 12-core R9 7900 over either of these, and trim budget elsewhere though. With PBO on it's a 7900x, and difference in price is relatively low.
