CPU Needed

[MittensK]

Hi,

 

I'm wondering if anyone has a graph or can find a graph comparing most of intel's mainstream processors to Ryzen CPUs. I want to do a new build and can't decide on Team Red or Team Blue.

 

Thanks in advance.

High refresh rate gaming (144Hz+) - i7 7700K

Muktitasking, editing, gaming - Ryzen 7 1700 or Ryzen 5 1600

Budget - Pentium G4560, until Ryzen 3 is out. 

Have a ton of money to waste on a half-baked platform - any X299 setup

awesomeness - Threadripper

 

so basically most people would be better off with a Ryzen 5 1600 on a decent budget, Ryzen 7, or i7 7700/7700K.

Gaming:

 

120Hz+ -> i7 7700k

else -> Ryzen 5 1600 or Ryzen 7 1700

 

Gaming + Streaming/Recording using x264:

Ryzen

 

Workloads:

Depends on what you do, some workloads benefit from fast few cores (i7) others benefit from multiple cores (R7).

Funny that my 1700 games at 144hz perfectly yet you all recomend a 7700k

Probably just you but based on what I saw and read from anandtech, linustechtips, guru3d, techpowerup, hardware unboxed, digitalfoundry, tom's hardware, gamer's nexus shows the 7700K beating the Ryzen 7 lineup in 144hz gaming. Even on stock 7700k vs OC'd Ryzen 7. Kaby Lake in general just has insane IPC compared to Ryzen, helps a lot when trying push as much frames as you can.

 

I too would recommend a 7700K for 144hz gaming.

I don't struggle for 144hz 

rise of the tomb raider average fps is 150 highs of 200 

overwatch 280 average fps

bf1 turn down a few settings 144 

the division 144 with a few things turned down

This were all with a 1080ti at 1080p

I was about to say, I have no issue getting over 144 fps in most of the games I play with my 1600X, except for certain GPU-limited titles.

 

People need to get rid of this notion that Ryzen isn't viable for high refresh gaming. These aren't just content creation CPUs.
