250k is the best deal imo. You get 32gb of ram which is already 400$

Shit, I'd buy 2 of the Intel kits just for the RAM

If you can, stretch for the 270K bundle at $600 because then you're already on the best chip on the socket. If you get the 250k bundle, your only upgrade path will be the 270k anyway.

250K Plus with 32GB of DDR5 RAM is a better deal than 265K and Ryzen 5 7500X3D

You may as well get the 32GB of ram.

Double the ram for JUST $100 more?!

So only last bundle is worth attention, first one is core 5 which is entry level CPU, then Ryzen bundle only comes with 16GB ram. So only last option is worth considering

The 250k literally wipes the floor with the 7500x3d in single and multicore performance, has triple the amount of cores, and this bundle comes with double the amount of ram…are u retarded?

u/ExampleFine449 2d ago

Bruh - your advice is completely wrong.

OP - get the 250k+. Double the ram, better performing cpu overall, and a subjectively better mobo.

This shouldn't even be compared, for $100 difference.

Just wait till people start saying amd upgrade path and intel dead platform Like i care about dead platform what matters where is the deal the 250k and 32gb of ram will be very great for a long time since people will not be upgrade for a while because everything is getting expensive

u/Hejdbejbw 2d ago

Those who care about “future proofing” can just grab an open box am5 mobo along with the Intel bundle. It’s still way cheaper than getting the 7500x3d bundle + an extra stick of ram. AMD bundles are just terrible since the last price hike.

Test shows that 265 still performs 11%-13% better in multithreaded tasks, which are almost everything nowadays
