Ryzen 7 3700X vs Core i7 9700K: Can AMD Challenge Intel in Gaming?
Join Rich for an extended look at the new Ryzen 7 3700X, Can AMD's eight cores and 16 threads topple the 8c/8t Core i7 9700K? Is the new chip x% faster than Intel... or is meaningful CPU benchmarking somewhat more challenging than we might think?
Note: There is a rendering error on one of the Witcher 3 graphs which shows a much bigger lead than for the Core i7 than the stated 39%. It is graphing error and the actual difference is indeed 39%.
