hello folks,

just a small question, with the new AMDs launching some of the Intels seem to be getting cheaper and so i was curious if you folks could tell me what the difference of the i7 10700k and kf skew processor is? i might be able to do an upgrade and since i havent gotten a confirmation back from NZXT that they got an am4 bracket available for my AIO i figured i might as well just consider an i7

 

thanks!

KF doesnt have integrated graphics

 

dont change your cpu choice over a cooling bracket... just get a different cooler, or use the stock amd cooler (only the 5600 has one)

AMD blackout rig

 

cpu: ryzen 5 3600 @4.4ghz @1.35v

gpu: rx5700xt 2200mhz

ram: vengeance lpx c15 3200mhz

mobo: gigabyte b550 auros pro 

psu: cooler master mwe 650w

case: masterbox mbx520

fans:Noctua industrial 3000rpm x6

what motherbaord do you have now? if you do not have a b460/ z490 board AMD will be cheaper option.

If you do have, 10700kf willl be nice. 10700kf does not have intergrated gpu like 10700k. that is where the f comes from.

I Use my knowledge as business owner and self taught technician aswell as an AI to help people. AI might be controversial but it actually works pretty well 90% of the time.

Does the F stand for press F to pay respects for integrated graphics

Reminder⚠️

I'm just speaking from experience so what I say may not work 100%

Please try searching up the answer before you post here but I am always glad to help

the new AMD ryzen 5 costs 100 bucks more than an i7 10700kf, my nzxt x61 cost more than 100 bucks and is way prettier and more powerful than the stock amd cooler? how would there be any point in choosing the AMD system, even if its better  by like 10% its still significantly more expensive

Whant country do you live? I can help you with this. well ryzen 5 5600x is likely not 100$ more since 10700kf need to be around 200-250$ then. that is used pricing. 

 

and not to mention decent z490 board cost much more than board that can Handle AMD.

account in the price of a z490 board and vuala

 

the i7 10700kf is what, like 325? 250-350 z490 board, =~575-675

ryzen 7 5800x for $400, b450 board for $150-200= 550-600

 

you could get a scythe fuma ii with the money you saved (or bug tf out of nzxt)

prices change all the time now amd ryzen 5 5600x 430€ : https://www.amazon.de/AMD-Ryzen-5-5600X-Box/dp/B08166SLDF/ref=sr_1_2?__mk_de_DE=ÅMÅŽÕÑ&crid=3AV1BTS4Q33IH&dchild=1&keywords=amd+ryzen+5+5600x&qid=1605251878&sprefix=amd+ryzen+5+5%2Caps%2C176&sr=8-2

people buy AIOs for looks not for performance, even if the scythe were better it would not be an option 

 

you need to factor in peoples personal preferences too, its like if a matching intel and amd cpu would cost the same but the AMD was 5% faster i would still tend toward intel because thats what i always had, but with the new amd cpu series i at least give it a thought that i might own an AMD some day

+ 5600x should be around 300€ and now that msi b550 A-pro is only little over 100€ at germany it is a steal when the price drops.

Some ATM. Yo have to look fo motheboard with ryzen 5000 ready sticker.  Most b550 and x570 board do have it, but the store can have old stock which need a bios update. Yo ucan always ask the seller to bios update it for you. Also you can check local pc stores, they usually bios update them for you.

The Z490-A Pro is the same price as the Asrock, and can run even a 10900K with the power limits removed just fine.

1. is the b550 the non oc AM4 motherboard? 2. Do you actually get an improvement with gaming when you oc an ryzen 5 5600x compared to stock? Also can i ask the manufacturer of a mobo if their specific board has ryzen 5xxx series support out of the box?

Litle. Or use PBO.

Yes, but the retailers can have old stock, they sell the old stuff before the new updated boards.
