What Specs Do You Need In A New Computer!?

CPUs:

Both Intel and AMD employ a numbering system to classify their CPU models based on their respective performance.

AMD Ryzen Series:

• Ryzen 3: Entry-level processors suitable for basic tasks.
• Ryzen 5: Mid-range CPUs with good performance for multitasking and light gaming.
• Ryzen 7: High-performance processors designed for demanding tasks, including content creation and gaming.
• Ryzen 9: Top-tier CPUs for power users, professionals, and enthusiasts.

Intel Core Series:

• i3: Entry-level processors for everyday computing needs.
• i5: Mid-range CPUs offering a balance of performance and affordability.
• i7: High-performance processors suitable for gaming, content creation, and productivity.
• i9: Premium CPUs with exceptional performance for intensive workloads.

Higher model numbers generally indicate better performance, but it’s essential to consider other factors like clock speed, cache size, and core count. We usually recommend CPUs be 2Ghz or higher.
