Even Intel struggles to offer good value, especially when you're trying to save money. Their products often fall short compared to more affordable options, making them less appealing for budget-conscious buyers.

I was considering switching to an i7 or i9 after a few months.

Consider getting an ASUS Prime. You might benefit from adding two more capacitors, which could slightly boost performance during overclocking if you haven't already purchased a CPU. Opt for an AMD instead, as their motherboards and CPUs are more affordable right now for entry-level builds.

It's important to note that neither option supports an i9 processor.

Sure, I understand. The OC feature works with my i5 before I upgrade it.

I see Amd is more suitable for a budget setup, but I might upgrade later. I don’t want to commit to AMD just in case top-end Intel performs even better.
