  1. Not a gamer, but am a content creator. So for me, it's been Intel, and am building a new PC based on Intel Core Ultra CPU and just today, picked up the Intel Alchemist A770, wanted B580 but they are so elusive at the moment. Only Micro Center has them, but not available online, gotta go into a store to get one, and I live in a state where they do not exist (yet). So the A770 it is for 4K video. Being that I multitask as this is also my main PC, I do research etc on it when not editing so it has 65GB of DDR5 memory. Since it's the new Core Ultra, it requires a MB that has the new socket (1851) and chipset (Z890) and DDR5 memory, which is 6400/CL 30. At one time, had considered the Ryzen 7 but ended up back with Intel. I run now a 7th gen i5 processor in a Dell SFF Optiplex and it does OK, not great in anything productivity wise.
