    The longevity of AMD's sockets is a compelling factor over Intel for me.

      this is the only reason, also my imaginary friend is telling me to mention IME as well.

      ...which would make AMD an even better choice? What did you mean by this?

        How are AMD better for non-gaming?

          Stop using this board if you don't know anything about computers. Go away.

    Intel is now more-or-less just a larger version of AMD. After Intel has fully divested from their foundries they will be exactly like AMD. Already Intel has destroyed the competative advantage they had painstakingly built up over the decades — the close linkage between silicon design and manufacturing process which allowed Intel CPUs to be unrivaled for so long — EVEN after YEARS following EUV with TSMC. That’s all gone now; yes they’re going into EUV but they’ve also stopped using their custom tech and are now using industry-standard tools and tech, no different from TSMC or Samsung or anyone else. THAT’S why they’re now selling fab services to external customers, which is just a move to eventually divest from fabs altogether, following AMD into the downward spiral of incompetent leadership and a competency crisis. Everything Intel has touched as gone to shit; their competency crisis wasn’t limited to just CPUs. So moving forward no one should look at Intel being the forever-king of CPU performance, and they will in fact be interchangeable with AMD in all ways that matter. So just get whatever is in your budget and is the best match for your goals at any given time. Who knows, maybe one of them will disappear in the future since they will be producing the SAME tech on the SAME tools as everyone else moving forward into the near future.

      If you're gaming AMD all day
      For other work shit Intel can make more sense
      Also Intel entry level CPUs are superior for home servers.

      and the pendulum will swing again eventually. It is nice to be able to talk shit to Intel gays for the first time in a while.

    If you play video games, Intel still comes out on top in most cases.

    AMD doesn't really have any compelling low-end offerings at the moment (maybe when 8300G actually shows up for sale, but even then 12100/13100 will probably remain the better choice if you don't need the beefier iGPU). Even i5s make a lot of sense if you're primarily using software that can take advantage of e-cores.

      AMD is in a weird place where their last gen parts would make a decent low end offering but the lack of integrated graphics on most of them means they're not actually useful for budget builders.

        That, and if you're getting a low-end system you'd probably rather have a fast quadcore than a hexacore that matches or slightly beats said quadcore in multithreading.
