Looking for a CPU to enhance gameplay, especially for Cities: Skylines. You need something affordable around 7000 Baht (225 USD).

An 8-core Ryzen would be a superior choice, those two cores will be useful for video editing.

In all the game tests, the 9600k performs best. Those extra cores might not really change the outcome...

It's a quicker chip with a slight price increase. Fewer cores usually mean lower performance. Talking about games is hard without knowing the GPU you'll use. 2080ti doesn't depend much on the CPU. Haha.

You'll receive 8 cores with hyper threading and additional unused capacity.

Consider the Ryzen 5 3600; it outperforms the 2700X in gaming, particularly in cities skylines, and surpasses the 9600KF for video editing tasks.
