8100 VS 1600

[datvu4202]

which CPU will bottleneck the ASUS ROG STRIX Geforce GTX 1070 Ti A8G and which one will be better in the long run ( 4- 5 years) for gaming and light streaming? 

 

[AskTJ]

I think you are referring to the i3 8100 and Ryzen 5 1600?

 

In that case, the Ryzen 5 1600 is the far better choice.

 

6 cores and 12 threads will blow away the i3's 4 core, 4 threads.

1600 will provide better results

[LukeSavenije]

1600 will do better, but i recommend the 2600

Could you explain as to why?

 

Not being rude, just would like to know.

for only $15 more you can just get the r5 2600, which is a better processor

the 2600 is about 30$ more, is it worth it?

not rude at all. you'll get longer support, better single core performence and just better optimalisation on the same chipset and socket

If the price gap is that small, yes.

 

Note, you will need a B450 or an X470 board for the CPU to be supported out of the box.

Good points, considering the $30 price difference.

 

Still have to take in mind the possible need of a BIOS update. (Though I think that has been fixed by all manufacturers)

not true, the new stock 3 series also works out of the box

are you talking about the B350M?

also, but you know ryzen doesn't have intergrated graphics exept for the 2200g and 2400g?

i have a gtx 1070 in the first place man. The only thing im wondering about is the cpu XD

i spent 300$ on the gpu so it left me with only 250$ for both the cpu and mobo

i know, but that motherboard has display outputs. which is not needed at all. and with a 1070 you might want to get an x-series mobo (not the x-series chip), so you can sli it later if you want to

i'm still a college student so sli won't be a possible outcome for me

okay, then you'll be fine with a b350 or b450 mobo, just get a good one.

[LukeSavenije]

also, a little off topic maybe, but take a look at the 1070 ti as it almost has 1080 performence

Does the ASUS Strix B350F sound good enough?

the 1070ti in my coutry is about 500$ and the regular 1070 is only 300$

p/s: the 1080 is 800$

how much performance are we talking about because i only have 170$ left and the 2600 is about 190$. That 20$ might give me some headaches

[datvu4202]

Yeah, I would get a Ryzen 2600, B450 Mobo, and at least 8GB of 2666Mhz or higher DDR4.

how much more performance will it give me over the 1600?

If that's the case just stick with a 1600. A 2600 would probably be a 5-10% performance jump.

Thats a solid mobo.

and in that case, would it be a huge impact if i lower the mobo to a Prime B450M-A because every penny matters? XD

Eh I wouldn't get that because it doesn't have vrm heatsinks. Are there any other options?
