Which of this two deals is better?

    I think think they’re that far off from each other – that being said for $50 more you can get a better processor – might as well get the 14700K – thats the only difference I see

    Virtually the same performance, so if you need or want to save $50 go with the 13700k.

  3. EastLimp1693

    14700k gets additional cores compared to 13700k, no brainer

    I’d go for the newer processor, 50 $ is not that big of a difference when you build a new pc. Both mainboards are doing a great job and are nearly the same. The MSI is slightly better imo

    How the… HOW THE FUCK IS IT SO CHEAP. Fuck this shithole country i’m moving to America.

    Save the $50 and add it to GPU budget, you get way more performance this way.

    I would honestly just go with the cheaper one and save the $50 to apply elsewhere. That is a pretty damn good deal.

    The Prime is a nicer board than the Pro. And if you’re only gaming the CPU performance is basically identical. Might as well save $50.

  9. Hoppyb33rs

    Might as well go for the 14700, with either you NEED an aio you won’t enjoy either with air cooling

    If you don’t mind paying $50 for a little more CPU speed then get thet 14700K other than that – the 13700 will still scream and do everything you need.

    You get incredible prices in your country. 14700k is definitely worth the extra.

    13700k save the money the mobos are about the same minus the bios layout

  13. PewterButters

    I got the 14700k kit and love it so far.

  14. Fr00stee

    I’d go with the 13700k since the cpus are basically the same

  15. BestNinjaBDO

    2nd one. First motherboard is mid. I actually own it lmao.

  16. Nurple-shirt

    I already made that decision and chose the 14700k with no regrets

    It might be on par with the 13700k in multithread processing but for 50$ more you get 13900k single thread performance. You also get a way more optimized power efficiency and intel apo tech which is pretty underwhelming right now but very promising.

    I look at the 14gen as a refinement of the 13gen

    If you are spending this much money already, isn’t the extra 50 worth it?

    I’d take the 14700k because it will be better in production (blender and UE5). I’d double the ram too though or mix and match it with my current ram (assuming decent speed on the 32 that comes with this package). 50 bucks though is like a few coffees and a burger or two. It’s not even a blip on my radar. It would have been a few years ago when my wife was a stay at home mom and things were tighter but now… I’d take the 14700k if you do any hobby/production type stuff too.

    You Americans have no idea how lucky you are to have cheap computer parts.

    If you’re just gaming the 7800x3d bundle for 470 would be better.

  21. Arthur-Wintersight

    Honestly, I would pay $50 more for the 14700K, because Intel has locked some software features to 14th gen, and the 14700k actually has more e-cores than the 13700k.

    Though the smarter move might be to wait for Meteor Lake, if your current system works fine.

  22. SpaceBoJangles

    14700 bundle. That motherboard is a higher tier on the MSI side, prime is usually the lower end of Asus.

  23. y_would_i_do_this

    Little late, but don’t write off the 14700k. It supports APO tech that the 13700k doesn’t. It boosts FPS! Get the 14700k!

  24. 50$ more for more cores, plus APO, I’d take the 14th gen combo.

  25. THE-REAL-BUGZ-

    Man, I remember going to my Micro Center when the 12 series dropped and I paid $450 for the 12700K and just a Z690 pro-A but no RAM. These prices have dropped like crazy. Cannot wait to upgrade the 2080Ti to a 4070Ti or better. Then ill finally grab a DDR5 mobo and probably stick with the 12700K until I can get a 13900 or something similar. These GPU prices gotta drop though. That 4070Ti really needs to hit like, $700-750 and the 4080 needs to hit like $900-950 tops.

    14700k is better you get a current age PC for just 50 bucks more

  27. handymanny131003

    13th gen. Performance difference is negligible, better motherboard with 13th gen, and $50 is $50…

  28. RedTuesdayMusic

    This is microcenter they have a much better 7800x3D and 5600x3D bundle.
