The latest 10th Gen Intel desktop CPUs are now available in India, but should you buy them in the Ryzen era? Well, there are some advantages that these new CPUs still have – sustained higher clock speeds, strong single-core performance, still includes integrated graphics, more FPS during gaming, better performance in single-core based application.
Intel CPUs still remain first choice for professionals who work on applications that favour Intel chips. Also, hard core gamers too still love Intel for their higher boost clock speeds and strong single-core performance. Obviously, these CPUs are now bit overpriced but still favourable to be used in your next gaming PC, paired with an NVIDIA GPU.
If you are the one who has the money to go for just a bit confused which platform you need, then Intel still holds its mark. AMD’s price to performance ratio is hard to beat and also it has the cheapest motherboards to pair with, but the new 10th Intel motherboards are a bit costly but absolutely worth it if you have enough bucks.
