  1. Yes, but the prices are too high. The 245k should be 250$, the 265k should be 330$ the 285k should be 450$

  2. The real champion is the Ryzen 7 7700 NON-X and 7900 NON-X. The former is 220-240$ brand new and the later is 340-360$ brand new.

  3. I'd also say the 245k if it was a bit cheaper is also great. The 13400f/14400f also have no stability issues because those issues exist in chips that reach 160-180W, while they only reach 65W of power consumption worst case scenario, in games they are usually at 40-50W. Otherwise outside of brands, nothing beats a 7700 NON-X for 220-240$ and 7900 NON-X for 330-360$

  4. Having had PCI-E 3.0, 4.0 and Sata SSDs, as long as your SSD doesn't thermal throttle or have no DRAM, even a SATA is more than fast enough.

  5. That's the best deal, as it gives you 7700X/non-X gaming performance, which is 16% lower than the 9800x3d on average(5-30% difference, but almost no games are above 20%).

  6. I suggest as 7900 non-X for 340-350$. Consumes only up to 88W, has better productivity than the 9800x3d and runs cool and quiet. If you need more than that, I'd suggest the 265k, but not the 285k as the 265k runs much cooler and more efficiently, costs 33% less and you lose only 20% performance.

  7. It's a hobby to you.
