I am thinking about building a new hackintosh. My 10 year old hack is still running flawlessly but I figured it was time.
i7-9700K or an 19-9900K. I know the technical difference between these two processors, but what do you all think in terms of real performance? Is hyper threading that important? Price/performance wise it looks like the i7-9700K is a better choice. Seems like you can overclocked it higher and easier. But does that matter? Price wise there is a $100 difference! For just hyper threading?!
I use my hack for creative production work. Adobe CS all day. InDesign, Photoshop and Illustrator. I may on occasion have to re-encode a video or two.
