1400 vs 1500x

[kaiju_wars]

I'm wondering which Ryzen CPU I should get?

I'm mostly gaming, but I plan to stream with some friends sometimes and Im even thinking of doing a YouTube channel so Id have to do some light editing.

 

I'm looking at the quad core Ryzen 5 CPUs, but I'm wondering which would be the better deal for me?  I'm pretty sure the 1500x won't bottleneck my 780 or whatever I plan ton upgrade to, but what about the 1400?  That shouldn't bottleneck anything, right?

 

Anyways, which would be the the better CPU for me?

Get the 1500x. It had a larger L3 cache which let's it perform better.

The 1500X performs much better on several situations, and has a better overall quality. I'd really try to get a 1600 at this point however, as this is the king of perf/price and is a huge upgrade for "futureproof" (for well, in the predictable future)

I get that, but it's a little over my price range right now.

Thanks both of y'all
