PC is supposed to run games like the Rainbow Six series or GTA on high settings at least on a 1440p screen.
So budget for CPU+MoBo+GPU is around 900-950 Euro.
I mostly toyed around with Ryzen setups that fit in that range.
3600 + RTX 2070 Super + B450 Mobo
3700x + 5700 XT + X570 Mobo
Were two of the possible combos I looked at. Question is are the two additional cores of the 3700x worth it to get weaker GPU ?
Is it worth looking at intel offerings as well or is the budget too tight for that ?
Any advice is appreciated.
