Why are you an AMD fan? It's been years (probably decades) since they've been the struggling underdog.
Just buy what fits your budget and needs.
Not sure in which reality you live in but new Ryzen series is seriously better than anything Intel can throw at it. Plus no security issues and more value for your money.
Did I write that AMD is bad? It's just stupid to be a mindless fan. You are giving very rational arguments for using AMD hardware. My desktop PC is currently running an AMD CPU and GPU. The one before that was running Intel with nVidia GPU. And the one before that was AMD with nVidia.
Just don't go "hurr, durr, only AMD!"
That's your assumption am an AMD fan. Never had AMD before current PC and all the rest is Intel. I just use what's best for the job I do and try to look past fanboyism. But whatever...
@MeanEYE They have the same security issues since it's an architecture thing. Ryzen has been really good though. Also EPYC.
@lig @Bjoern_Tantau
Which security issue are you referring to? Meltdown was Intel exclusive while Spectre claimed to be present on AMD only partially but there were more versions discovered later that were present.
Ryzen released in 2017, so definitely not decades.
