there has been relatively more competition than the CPU
market). Many of the users use AMD Ryzen processors than
Intel Core "Coffee Lake" and "Kaby Lake." So, in the period
following Intel's launch of 7th generation "Kaby Lake" (slightly
before the launch of Ryzen), more AMD processors are used
among our readers. This of course doesn't mean that there are
more AMD users, since we're not counting pre-Ryzen Intel
generations such as "Skylake" and "Haswell."

and standards and it has found that 44% of users have invested

nothing but Ryzen gen 1 with 14% of users and then nothing
but not least we have Intel 8th gen processor users.

As shown in figure 2, we have classified different AMD and

intel users as one and found out there are over 78% of amd users
and only 21% of intel users in 2019.

performance: According to research conducted it has found that Annexure 1

performance of amd and intel are highly debatable. Intel
performs best on gaming and browsing whereas AMD handles
tasks and perform excellent in case of video editing and graphic
designing. Intel Processor MRPs are higher due to ongoing
production shortages so you may find better deals on AMD
Ryzen CPU until production issue ease
 Clock speed is more important than core number:
Higher CPU clock speed translate to complex and
snappier performance in simple, common tasks such
as gaming and other video editing tools, while more
cores will help you get through time-consuming
workloads faster.
 Get the latest generation: According to latest research
it’s found out that old generation processor doesn’t last
much in current market as technology advancement
has crossed the peak so old generation will have hard
time competing with the new one.
 Budget for a full system: According to latest research
it’s found out that upgrading the Processor will not
solve all the issue you have to be prepare for which
parts for all necessary components such as
Motherboard, RAM, PSU. (for E.g.: AMD RYZEN
2600 runs best and perform its full functionality if it is
running with B450 Motherboard), so everything is
interdependent and thus compromising on any part is
not an option.
 Overclocking isn’t for everyone: For most people, it
makes more sense to spend $20-$60 more and buy a
higher-end chip just to overclock but priorities come
when you are low in resources and have to work with
existing system. (YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED, this
