How do your Ivy Bridge and Haswell Core i7s compare with your 9400F performance wise ?I'm a little sorry I didn't grab it but my i5-9400F is adequate for the current role it plays.
How the tables have turned recently. Used to be that AMD chips cost less and Intel was high priced. A 9700K is a deal at $259. Not long ago we paid that for a 4 core i5 CPU.Interesting to me that people are spending $300+ on the Ryzen 5 5600X when it's still just a 6 core chip. I don't care how fast it is single core, it's going to be limited down the road IMO. For $259 I got a 9700K that's just as fast and has 8 real cores.
Yes, it seems AMD is standing pat right now. They're King of the Hill, Top of the Heap... or maybe overwhelmed supplying Playstation & Xbox orders, I dunno?How the tables have turned recently.
