Ryzen 7 3700x vs Intel i7 9700k

Hi all,

I’m currently upgrading my pc and I use rpcs3 a lot. For Rpcs3, would a 3700x or a 9700k perform better in terms of average fps? Assuming on par components like Ram, gpu etc.

I need some help deciding as this pc is used exclusively for emulation, and the decision affects motherboard, cooler etc.

Also, higher tdp processors aren’t really an option as it’s a tiny pc case.

Thanks everyone for your help.

Hi Xergoth,

I tend to lean towards Intel CPU's, but I would recommend the CPU with the most cores/threads. You could dedicate more threads to RPCS3, possibly increasing performance.
