   I am currently composing a new #PC for my father...
   And I'm currently faced with the question "#AMD or #Intel" - It's not supposed to be a high-end system, but rather a well-performing computer that should also last for about a good decade. (He VERY rarely gets a new one) So I will use the latest of the latest.
   As for #CPU selection, I find AMD simpler simply because there aren't as many models. (I'm also a bit of a AMD fanboy) What do you think?

     @Jain Yeah, but as I said: I will try to use the latest of the latest (so Zen 4)...
     So I guess I will go with a 7700/7800?

     @Jain It's not about price to performance, but rather length of support, as he does not switch systems (or even upgrades) that often...

     @Jain @askfedi @MagicLike This one really is pretty killer for the price.

     @catraxx @askfedi @MagicLike it is, especially if one doesnt want high-end, one could take the non 3d version and pay 1/3 less which makes it the ultimate cheap solution for a performant system rn

     @MagicLike @Jain @askfedi Sucks is a very strong word in this context. It's still pretty good, just not as good as a processor with twice the cores, obviously.

     @catraxx @Jain @askfedi (but sucks at productivity tasks - compared to non 3d)
