I was thinking buying all the parts for now, and dropping in the 10920x in a later day. But, from the overall conciseness Ryzen is the way to go. I'm sold, Red team it is. Thanks everyone! ? Linus mention that Ryzen is very picky on the RAM. The RAM I've picked out are from basic google search "best RAM for Ryzen", and 3200ghz seems a bit slow/average for a DDR4. Any other recommendations? Does Samsung chip make a huge difference?

Hello Community, A little backstory before I jump-in for the main course. My current build is from 2012. Rocking a 3770k OC@4.6ghz, Sabertooth Z77, EVGA 1080ti FTW, 2x8GB of DDR3 RAMs. By the end of next month my CPU will be 7 generation behind. Beginning of this year, I started having computer issues. I've put in multiple hours trying to troubleshoot the computer and the results has been unsuccessful. So, I'm at the point of (╯° □ °）╯︵ ┻━┻. I've put together two different builds. Please let me know your thoughts on it. I'm planning on buying all the parts by the end of this week. -I'm a graphic/presentation designer. -Software I commonly used are: Photoshop 3D modeling, 4k to 8k PowerPoint production. -Video games: Squad, Borderlands 3, Star Citizen -1440p 34" widescreen I'm hoping this computer with last me for 6-8 years Intel option: The CPU is i9-10920x (waiting for release) +$700 Link The reason why I went with 10920x is because the high clock speed with decent core thread counts. (I'll also be getting it through a friend, which will offer me a significant discount.) AMD option: Link After watching Linus video "I went AMD" I though hey, Linus is right. I want the best performance! Cons: I've never tinker with AMD cpu before. So overclocking might be a major learning curve. Looking for recommendation replacing SSD with two M.2.s Any combination and sizes are ok. Budget range $450 for both. Thanks so much, Joe
