Which CPU would you choose?

[Tyler-UAC]

I'm currently configuring my Alienware R10/12 and am contemplating which CPU to get. Specs otherwise include RTX 3080, 32GB RAM. 

 

Primary use for the computer will be 1440p-4K gaming, Adobe Lightroom and Premier work. Choices for CPU include:

• Ryzen 5900x
• i9 11900KF
• i7 11700KF
• i9 10900K

 

I look forward to your thoughts!

10900K pricing can make it a serious value. I built a friends computer recently and was able to get a one for $379, which made it a great deal when you included that Intel motherboards are also cheaper right now. 

Of course money no object the 5900x is a great CPU, plus supports many of the newer features that 11th gen includes now. 

 

I don't know what kind of pricing you are able to get through Dell, but I would hope that you would get a discount from going a older CPU like the 10900K.
