Dear Pix4D

I am currently building a new computer and had an “Intel i9 12 core processor i9 9920X (3.5GHz)19.25MB Cache”, but PC World has recommended the following processor:

- AMD Ryzen ThreadRipper 1950X
- 3.4 GHz
- 16-core
- 32 threads
- 32 MB cache
- Socket TR4

Can you advise if this processor will be good enough or should I purchase an Intel® Core™ i9 12 Core Processor i9-9920X (3.5GHz) 19.25MB Cache?

Kind Regard

Paul

Hi Paul. The 1950x Line tends to provide good value. Determining what is best for you depends on what the workload will be and your time and budget needs. I go into this in more depth in the article below. Check this out to see if that helps answer some of your questions.
