What to choose?
I’m unsure about choosing between a R5 3600 and an i5 9600K. Could you clarify what you need for video editing and gaming?
What is it being paired with? Mostly I’d recommend the 3600 since it gets close to the 9600kf in single-threaded mode, but in multi-threaded setups it’ll perform much better. However, it might strain Intel if other parts aren’t optimized.
Ram holds the greatest significance here, yet I’d still opt for the 3600.
I reside in the UK and 10th generation CPUs cost around £300, which is about $350 to $400 USD.
