Hi, so I am planning another build for gaming but I want to run VMs in the background so would the optimal choice be getting a ryzen or waiting for another intel cpu, I want to buy the pc in a month's time. Thank you for helping me in advance.

Just now, Electronics Wizardy said:

you can get past that pretty easily by not using hardware virtualization for old oses and using emualtion, you probably not doing a ton of stuff in xp and older anyways.

Yeah, it was just a random thing that popped up in my head when someone said "VM"...
