10900 non k versus 10850k on B460 – Power restrictions
10900 non k versus 10850k on B460 – Power restrictions
Both options cost the same. I won’t push the processor beyond its limits. I’ll disable power restrictions, allowing up to 210W on an MSI non-Z board.
Take whatever is more affordable. You’re unlikely to see a noticeable change.
The 10900 is preferable as it feels better. 10850 seems like a lower-end option, and because they’re priced the same and you can’t overclock, you should get the 10900 unless the 10850K becomes available on sale.
That's the main point I could recall. For resale value 10900 could be more appealing. Another question: The numbers in the tables seem confusing. What do they really represent? > Should I aim for a Z board if I really want to utilize the 10850k fully? (I think I should choose 10900.) With a Z board I'm priced similarly to a 5800x. If I opt for this path, lower power usage (80-100 watts) on core components could justify it. I prefer Intel over AMD mainly because of the integrated graphics. This makes it simpler to set up a powerful "home office" system without needing a GPU later. With a B340 board and 10900, the Intel option is roughly €80 cheaper than AMD, which looks like a good deal. Sorry – it turned out to be a bit of confusion. Source links provided.
