Asrock Z490M itx/ac paired with i7 10700K and Gigabyte Aorus B550I Pro AX with Ryzen R7 3700X both listed at $872.00 SGD offer similar value. Which provides better performance depends on your needs—flight/driving sims, AAA games, streaming, or emulator titles.

if your focus was just on gaming, you’d likely choose the 10700k—just keep in mind you probably need an aftermarket cooler for Intel. For AMD, streaming would be a better fit.

The stock cooler for the 10700k isn't sufficient, so consider adding a better one to justify the Intel cost. It's also curious that the Intel price matches the AMD price.

We'll employ the scythe model version 2 regardless of the choice.

when streaming and editing, 3700x is ideal; for pure gaming, 10700 works well—even at 3700x, you’ll still enjoy a solid gaming experience, though it’s about 10-15 fps slower than the 10700 (as shown in benchmarks with a 2080ti).

Can't pay for the RTX 2080 Ti... It's too costly ($1999 SGD) so we're moving to the RTX 2080 Super ($1028 SGD).

That's really great! Have you already purchased these parts? Since you can afford a 3700x and a 2080Super, it makes sense to hold off until mid-September for new GPUs and Ryzen CPUs. The performance you'll get for the same budget will be incredible! For instance, the new Gen 3070 is expected to outperform the 2080Ti for the same price as a 2070.

Depends on the resolution; 1080p is fine, 1440p shows a 5-10% variation, and 4K is around 1-3%.

We would hold on, but the system he was using moved to tech heaven during mid-game in Overwatch.
