I don’t get why some people are getting mad at this guy. Some people don’t understand this a tier list for ONLY GAMING!!! If you are buying a cpu only for gaming, then stick with ryzen 7. They are perfect for gaming experience. You don’t need Ryzen 9… They are used for other things like video editing or software development.

[@cademckenna863]

Because this guy is somehow being biased as shit towards AMD LMAO. saying "you don't need a i9 for gaming" when if you want the most performance for gaming especially for esports games which are heavily cpu bound games then getting a i9 13 or 14th gen cpu is what you wanna get. Gamers Nexus has shown the i9 14900k is the fastest gaming cpu on the market currently for gaming. Yes as a budget cpu an i9 is almost never worth it. But again if you want top performance then the i9 14th gen is going to be what gets you it

[@Yardo]

@@ScatterVoltthis list was great except for the 13400f ranking. You fail to mention that it gets 12600k performance for slightly more money, but it’s also more power efficient and doesn’t need an expensive Z690 or Z790 motherboard to operate at that speed.

[@bradstreetmichael]

The problem I have with some of the newer AMD systems (haven't checked the Intel yet) is the price of the motherboard is a lot higher than a B550 motherboard running DDR 4, especially in an ITX build.

[@Theworthsearcher]

But what about the upgrade path? And windows licence? AMD has a ver good upgrade path, which means 22 MOBOs from intel. So actually you can half that price, or double the intel's MOBO price. And also thw dinows licence key price because it connects to the MOBO. ;)

[@TheBattleRabbit860]

The cost of a B650 over a B550 is a big difference, but the leap from AM4 to AM5 is worth it. Especially when you consider that AM4 has no path to upgrade and uses last gen DDR4 RAM. With my X670E I'm PCIe gen 5.0 ready, which is rumored to come out with the RTX 5000 series.

[@Theworthsearcher]

Dear @@TheBattleRabbit860 , Finally someone, who understands, what I am talking about for a long time. Platform longevity... Menawhile intel was on the same node at 12th, 13th and 14th gen, AMD already went down from 5nm to 4 nm. And probably 9000 series is on 4 nm and Zen 6 will be produced on 3 nm from TSMC and maybe, not the original 3nm but something like 3nm P, or E, or something, which will be better, than the original 3nm. That is why AMD is a lot better choice now. Probably 1 MOBO instead of 3 MOBOs, especially, if we count intel's 10th and 11th gen Desktop CPUs... 🙂

[@TheBattleRabbit860]

@@Theworthsearcher Intel dropped the ball with the 13th and 14th gen i9 chips. People are having issues with them and need to run them at lower voltage to stop them from crashing, and at the lower voltages the Ryzen 7 7800X3D stomps it in average FPS in most games. As long the 9000 series are AM5 and not AM5+ and I can run it in my X670E mobo, I'll have good.

[@trashasaurus]

To be fair if you get the 5600X3d in the $299 bundle that includes Ram and a mobo it's a nice base to build a budget rig around. Buying it alone at the clearly over inflated price Microcenter set (to encourage you to buy the bundle probably) would definitely not be recommended tho lol.

[@ScatterVolt]

Very true. I keep forgetting about that.

[@NGreedia]

[@dedal24]

I wouldn't put 14600k/f so low, especially lower than 5900x, these two cost about the same but 14600k is significantly faster in gaming. When comparing 14600k and 13600k, performance difference is very small, but 14600k is more energy efficient and runs cooler.

[@logman1014]

The price between the 13 and 14th gen i5 are basically the same as well.

7500f is so underrated and it even beats 5800x3d which is much more expensive. 7500f + a620 + 2x8 ddr5 ram is cheaper than the 5800x3d alone on where I live

[@captpootis8495]

Hey Scattervolt, Great video! I will say the 12700k was done a bit dirty, the kf varient is $190 or right at $200 last i checked. Thats still really strong and people use it at 1440p and 4k with 4080's and 7900xtx. Cant wait to see the standings in 9 months time lol.

[@ScatterVolt]

We’ll see. After all, a $200 7600 outperforms it in gaming 😅

[@captpootis8495]

@@ScatterVolt True, its mostly for those who "need" 8 cores on the side. You really only need 6 cores. The 12700k is better in terms of workstation application. I myself think the 7600 is better overall except workstaion applications. Also not to be that "guy" but the 7600 rn is $230. Prices change so hard.

[@Friskyztv]

@@captpootis8495​​⁠​⁠​⁠​⁠I’d rather go 12700k it keeps up, if not better sometimes than the 7700/x, 7600 is good but 12700k takes all of them due to price and more cores & threads for more things done at once. I also think 12700k should have been a lot higher definitely.

[@captpootis8495]

@@Friskyztv Not in single threaded performance aka gaming. Yea id say the 12700k is fast for workstation and pretty nice for gaming but in terms of actual speed its slower then the 7600. And the same for the 7700x. Look on toms hardware, its ever prevelant that the amd cpus (7000) series are better. Even a 7500f or hell even a 5800x3d is faster for gaming. Its not core count, its single threaded performance you want to look for.

[@guyza123]

Yeah, some of these new games actually want 8 cores, AAA stuff. It is rare but there you go. Well they use all the cores you have.

the ryzen 5 7600 is on sale for 269$ CAD on newegg, paired with a 6700x at 439$ CAD. Is that suitable to start a fresh build around? if not what would you recommend?

[@bogotstogoskiing]

Depends what resolution you will be gaming at. That'll be a 1080p killer at max settings and at 1440p High settings.

[@albanian5525]

As someone with a 7900x, I can somewhat agree with the listing. When it comes to gaming I definitely agree, but for all around usage I'd definitely rank it higher. A part of me has some kind of buyers remorse getting it over the 7800x3D.

[@RainDrpz]

[@herbertwalter8693]

i have built three budget AM5 PCs for friends and family so far. these rigs were intended to be upgradeable in the future. After some compatibility issues with an MSI board (am5 was really new and bios/memory compatibility was crap then) i switched to ASRock and stayed with it ever since. no issues so far. Boards i used: 1. ASRock B650M-HDV/M.2: -about 120 bucks -proven to be able to handle the 7950x under all core load in cinebench -2 M.2 slots (1 pcie 5.0) -only 2 RAM slots (not really an issue) -no 3 pin ARGB headers though! 2. ASRock B650M PRO RS: -about 140 bucks difference to the HDV/M.2: some white paint, a little bit of RGB, 4 RAM slots, a third M.2 slot (two lanes only) and most crucial: some 3 pin ARGB headers! 3. ASRock B650M PG Riptide -about 160 bucks (not really budget anymore imo) -a bit like the PRO RS with some RGB but in black -beefier voltage regulation

Hello ScatterVolt, I have a question: Well my i5 4590 with 8gb of ram got pretty long in the tooth and screams for an upgrade. The main aplication for my next build is to do 3D modelling in Creo, Blender and Alias, video editing in Vegas PRO; some later AAA games and some 6-8 year f2p old games. The GPU i have is a RX5600XT. Even tough Intel has better performance/core for the programs mentioned above, i’ve already bought a MSI B550M Mortar for cheap. Im wanting to buy 5950x second hand and get the 32gb ram and a d ak 620 cooler for it. Here in eastern europe i find 5800x at @ 180$ 5900x at @250$ and 5950X at@330$. Wich one would you buy? The ETA for the next upgrade after this build i estimate it will be 2028 new gpu for me at least and 2030 cpu + mobo. Thank you for you time!

the problem is the cores cant be overclocked. But tbh, it did pretty well for editing but not so much a very bang of bucks for it.

In South Africa the 7500f can only be bought in pre builds and part of cpu/mem/motherboard combos. Two of the biggest resellers sell them and one of them with an exceptional reputation.

Mine is running super stable at -15 undervolt and didnt bother trying to go even lower with its great temps.

[@Blue-ev5ow]

The GPU is definitely your bottleneck for almost everything. I ran an i7 7700 with a GTX 1060 3gb, and upgraded to a 1080 later on. CPU technology advances far slower than GPU when it comes to effective performance, which is why even ten year old processors can still run modern games with decent performance- very few GPUs are capable of such a feat. If you want a bit more CPU performance, you can try a bit of overclocking with that chip anyway if you havent already. Only thing is, if you use your PC for a lot more than just gaming, you might start to feel the lack of cores on your performance. Currently I am switching my main desktop to a Ryzen 5 5600x that I got with a motherboard deal for just over $200, so you can still find some awesome options like that if you are willing to spend a bit more and make the switch.

[@chillapee]

I wouldn't necessarily call the 5000G CPUs a waste of sand, they have a place, and no, it's not because of the iGPU, but because they are always slightly cheaper than the non-G counterparts, this is where the 5600G shines, it is cheaper than the 5600 yet not as stripped back as the 5500 (The stripped down 5600G) 5700G is not as great because it doesn't fall into low budget the same way, making the 10 ish pound difference in price not as important

I have 7950x3d, i bought it when 7800x3d was still 500€, so getting 8 (faster for normal use) cores extra for half price felt worth it. Also i did 8! years with i5 3570k, that made me think that for how much i use pc, that having backup cores is handy, i soon will also do heavy Davinci editing. This is the only cpu that felt 'complete' to me: Fast in games: check, fast in all-core workloads: check, efficient in both gaming and workloads: check, future proof, check, temperatures not crazy high 95° on 7950x and even more on 13900k sorry my cpu needs to last, this is not healthy even if it 'might not die' plus good efficiency fixes usually temps on it's own, so why have cpu like 13900KS? Good to see you agree'd, i think the 7950x3d is underrated, many recommend the 7950x or 13900k or 7800x3d over it, but all of these cpus (except maybe 7800x3d) have downsides, the 7800x3d is a tad (but less then you would think) slow in worloads, the 7950x3d smashes it all. As for expensive 3950x was 850€ dropped to 700€ only AFTer 5950x was launched then didnt drop further. 5950x was very expensive at first, 850>999> 825 (long time), then to strongly be discounted when 7000 series came, and now even further, but the 7950x3d is in the situation without a succeeding cpu out yet, if we consider x3d cache to be worth 100€ (see 5800x3d vs 5800x), then it's 599€, that is lowest price for a cpu yet... and with plenty advantages like newer node, now upgradable platform, i see all the 5800x3d hype, and you know what? I'm to late for that, if i bought 5000x it would be as 'new pc' thus non upgradable. Sad, so i wanted this whole hype advantage, so i had to get AM5, now my plan is to get 9950x3d if it ever gets massive discounted. And if not my current cpu rocks. Also ram was rumored to be more expensive and it is (+50€) while cpu (black friday only) was 120€ cheaper, that 70€ was worth it for 6 months i'm enjoying this insanely fast cpu.

I got a 3600 about 3 1/2 years ago (coming from a 6600k) and I never regretted that one, it's served me well. Now I just kind of got interested in something a bit more powerful and ended up getting a new system with 7600x with some nice memory that didn't break the bank. I looked at both 7600 and 7600x and decided I liked the higher clocks for the 7600x and the price wasn't that much higher.
