I see people constantly recommend the 7700X/7800X3D if you’re primarily gaming and an Intel chip if you’re doing both gaming and productivity tasks. Even I make that recommendation based on the benchmarks I’ve seen.
That got me thinking though. Are there any reasons to get an Intel chip if your primary use case is gaming? I’m not trying to dig at Intel, I genuinely want to know if there’s anything I’ve overlooked about Intel chips regarding their gaming performance and factors around them. Maybe more future proof thanks to the extra cores for when games inevitably start using more cores.
It’s most likely that you’ll choose intel over amd if you play very specific games that lean over intel. And if you want a cpu that works right away. But we’re at a time that the 7000 series cpus bugs and errors are mostly fixed.
