I used to use nothing but Intel every time I built a new gaming PC. My last build in early 2021, I went with AMD 6900, and I've been real happy with it. I had been planning on going back to Intel for my next build, but this has spooked the shit out of me.
I honestly don't understand why you'd go back to Intel these days. Performance is only comparable if Intel chips guzzle like twice the wattage, and they'll make sure you have to also change your mobo by conveniently switching sockets every two years. What's the upside of going Intel?
