Help Choose My CPU

[Meekynos]

I need your thoughts and opinions. I am unable to decide on which CPU to use for my build. It is between a Ryzen 3 3300x and an Intel I5-10400. It will be used for both gaming and rendering (Civil Engineering stuff). It will be paired with a 1660.

did you check benchmarks for your applications?

That is prob a budget build, id suggest going for an apu in this case like the 5700g so you can just use igpu for now and then add a gpu later on

 

Budget?

Country?

Parts list (if you have one)?

Their results were almost the same. That is why I'm having a hard time deciding.

790$ or 40,000 php, from the philippines. going for the APU route would let me have a hard time with rendering because of the civil engineering stuff I do.

Since you are in southeast asia shopee should be available aka an eshop app that will prob get you better deals than buying from places like amazon, you may even have multiple eshop apps like here in indonesia

 

You can find some really good local deals through local eshop apps so thats why i reccomend the local eshop apps

 

Since you are in southeast asia your local market is prob flooded with chinese stuff, and you can get some insanely good deals on said chinese stuff like cpu coolers for example se 224 xt, or snowman coolers

 

 

I suggest using eshop apps like shopee and looking though your local deals and also chinese stuff, use the chinese stuff if it comes in forms like cpu coolers or cases as you can get some really good deals on those, local market wise if old hedt platforms are cheaper than new platforms you can get a better gpu, if not then maybe look for deals on new platforms, i can get ryzen 5 3500x for ~150$, if cpus arent good then look for cheap mobos or rams
