Which is a better deal?
6-core processors are perfect for gaming. A $544 1080p gaming CPU? Haha, what? The whole CPU competition is driving everyone crazy.
The top option seems to be the 10850k model. I'd only consider getting the 5800x at that price if it comes with a 3090/6900xt. A better GPU would be preferable if you're looking for savings. The 3900x is generally slower than the 10850k and costs more, so it shouldn't be on your list.
If I upgrade to a better GPU, it probably won’t make much difference since I’m playing at 1080p, not higher resolutions. If that’s true, I might look into different processors instead.
