If i were to choose the ryzen  5 instead, would it be the 1600x or 1500x?

Ideally the 1600, but get the 1500 if you need to save (Either are better the the i5, non X can OC to match it so dont bother with them). Would also buy an SSD (Assuming you just have a HDD).

Okay, should I change the mobo as well? I'm really confused when it comes to which motherboard I should get..

Don't get Intel Core i5,get The AMD Ryzen 5 1600/1500/1400,what is your budget? If u have the good budget,u might be able to bump it upto a AMD Ryzen 7 1700 and GTX 1070/1080

The 1600,the "X" doesn't really matter since it is a XFR boost of 50 MHz (lol) and around 40-80$ more

The 1700 costs as much as a 7700K and if all you do is play games, the 1700 isn't a better option.

 

OP, don't get a 7600K get a Ryzen 5 1600 or an i7 7700 (with a B250 board)

i7 is useless,R5 is much better value,even if less performance in single threaded,and HA,$1500 Gaming PC,120 GB $50 SSD? wtf.Its $1500 not $15 or $150

OP, don't get a 7600K get a Ryzen 5 1600 or an i7 7700 (with a B250 board)

1.It is much better value,even if not so good for gaming,and if u want to get a 7700K,how is it a BAD value in front of it? Intel fanboy,compare it to a 6900K or 7820X

2.B250=No Overclocking B350=Overclocking.

3.7700 is useless,since a R5 is better value,again also with overclocking

Value=/=performance. And the 7700 will outperform an overclocked 1600 in games. The 1700 is better value than the 7820X, but the 7820X destroys it in everything.

and you are clearly admitting that r5 has worse performance(performance/price is good) and criticizing on picking cheap ssd. So why not spending more money on cpu which can perform much better?

Uh lol what?

 

The 1600 games just as well as a 1700, so getting a 1700 for gaming makes zero sense.

 

Obviously the 1700 isn't the "better one" in this case, since the 7700k is better for gaming.

Alright then, why don't you go try fitting a 7700k and 1080 ti in a $1500 budget without cheaping out on everything else and getting a 250gb decent ssd and 1tb hdd? Go ahead, I'm waiting. Maybe you shouldn't criticize others when you can't do better.

 

Yeah R5 is better "value," if you mean perf/$. But in this case the budget allows for a 7700k+1080 ti, so why not get that extra 10% performance?

 

Also, you seem to be contradicting yourself, first you recommend an R7 and now an R5.

[DocSwag]

But 7600k isn't better for gaming, it has worse minimums than Ryzen 5 hence why I recommend Ryzen 5 over i5 for gaming. But when you look at the i7 side, i7 beats r7 and r5 in gaming, hence why I recommend i7.

 

Your logic makes literally zero sense, "People recommend R5 over i5 at $250 bracket but recommend i7 over r7 at $350 bracket for gaming, UH SOMETHING THEIR OPINION IS DIFFERENT BLAH."

 

Also, you got AMD wrong it's Advanced Micro Devices. Not American.

How does it destroy the 1700 (just remove the 1800X in this comparison,but still a 1700 is as good as a 1800X when overclocked)
Reasons I say it as not so good value

 

1.Around/Over Double the Price of a 1700

2.Motherboards=Prices high af

3.Unnecesaary release

Now,a 7740X is more than a Price of a 1700,which is basically less value than a 1700,Here's how

 

1.4 Cores 8 Threads < 8 Cores 16 Threads

2.16 < 24 PCIe lanes

3.Can use half of your motherboard > Can Use your entire motherboard

4.Basically a 7700K on X299 with a 100 MHz higher base clock

5.Expensive AF motherboards < Not very expensive motherboards

 

Even If,we take a 7700K,6700K,for gaming,then why do GAMERS (not professional content creators,etc) buy 59xx and 68xx or 69xx CPU's from InteL?

 

Bulls*it what ur talking about.

1. Value is dependent on your scenario. When it comes to gaming, the R7 is worse value than the 7700k.

 

Sure the 1700 has better multi threaded performance/$ than the 7700k, but WHO CARES if op can't even use that performance!!!

2. B250 is cheaper than B350, what is your point?

3. Um mind providing a source for that?

i didn't even mentioned i7 7820x? do you read comments?
