I have finally ditched Nvidia and I have nothing but praise for my AMD gpu. Now im in market for new CPU and I kinda want to do same with Intel, since I was on intel my whole life.

At the moment im looking at AMD Ryzen 9 7900 and i5 13600k (if i decide to go with intel) i5 is 70-80euros cheaper in my country.

Will there be any differance betwen those two on linux? What are your experiences with AMD cpus?

Thanks

    The 7900 is significantly better than the 13600 in multi-core performance. In single-core performance they’re fairly comparable. If you only care about single-core, you can also consider dropping down to the Ryzen 7700, which is basically the same but with fewer cores.
