I know we shouldn’t have brand loyalty, but after the near decade of quad core only CPUs from Intel, I can’t help but feel absolute hate towards them as a company.
I had a 3770k until AMD released their Ryzen 1000 series and I immediately jumped over, and within the next generation Intel started releasing 8 core desktop cpus with zero issues.
I haven’t bought anything Intel since my 3770k and I don’t think I ever will going forward.
The 3770k was legendary. I used it for so long. I upgraded to a 7600k almost a decade ago and now just ordered my first AMD chip (Ryzen 9700X). The Intel chips were solid, did so long with them, I hope this AMD system will last as long.
Yep, I kept the 3770k until I bought a 7800x3d. It lasted that long, and I gave my son the 3770k system and it was still overkill to play the games he wanted. Rocket League, Minecraft, fortnite etc…

7700k here I will upgrade from (likely to AMD) one day. But still almost zero reason to.
I still have my 3770k but it’s in storage.
I bought a 1700X and was using that until upgrading to a 3700X, which I’m still using today in my main gaming desktop.
I think you’ll be fine!
