do you want cores or smores? they are pretty identical and trade blows almost everywhere. especially at 1440p where you probably wont experience much difference between them. generally speaking the Ryzen ones perform better the newer the title is and the Intel perform overall better in older titles and identical in newer or may loose in some very, very very specific game. also Nvidia has shown to not play the best with AMD CPUs for some time (this may be have been resolved allready).

 

Id take the Ryzen, but i am biased in the sence i allready have a Ryzen and i like AMD. both are very excellent purchases though.

 

i thought for at least 7 seconds that you were going to talk about "RED vs BLUE" the Roosterteeth series. i was wrong. btw the show is gold even though ive skipped like 14 seasons of it.

Usage: PC gaming, some Photoshop light work and at least 40 tabs open in my browser simultaneously because of my work... I must say that I come from 3570K so... :)

If you like 40+ browser tabs, 16 GB RAM is a big improvement over 8.

 

However, I do think a liquid cooled high-end CPU is overkill for light photoshop and gaming (unless you want to game at 120+ Hz maybe).

For light Photoshop work, you can probably do that with an i5/R5 or i3/R3 processor.
