quick CPU + Mobo comparison

[Anakim]

Hi guys,

Quick question: for an all around pc with mid-high performance what should i pick between these 2  cpu+mobo :

-Ryzen 7 2700x (313 euros) + B450 Gaming PRO Carbon AC (150 euros) = 463 euros
or
-Ryzen 5 2600x (205 euros) + Asrock X470 Taichi Promontory (230 euros)= 435 euros

 

Im on budget so I was wondering if its better to have more cores on the CPU (but i will use this pc for gaming and small projects with my gopro). or it's better to invest in a better Mobo?
lemme know thank you so much

Your current video card and future video card will thank you for getting option 2.  No brainer.

no real advantage of x470. get the 2700x
