What Performance Tier Do I Need?
- 1080p Gaming: Great for esports and most AAA titles on high settings. Look for GTX 1660 Super or RTX 4060 builds.
- 1440p Gaming: Mid-tier performance with better visuals. Aim for RTX 4060 Ti or 4070.
- 4K Gaming & Streaming: Top-of-the-line builds with RTX 4070 Ti or higher.
Intel vs AMD: Which One Should You Pick?
Both Intel and AMD make powerful CPUs — the right choice depends on what you need:
- Intel: Best for max FPS in competitive games and strong single-core performance. Great for gaming-first builds and streamers.
- AMD: Excellent multi-core power and efficiency. Great for productivity, rendering, and balanced gaming + multitasking.
