Ultimate Web App to choose and compare CPU Processors
CPU Brand: Intel vs. AMD
The two major CPU brands are Intel and AMD. Both offer a wide range of CPUs for different needs and budgets. Intel is known for its strong single-core performance and has traditionally been the go-to choice for high-end gaming and productivity tasks. AMD, on the other hand, offers excellent value for money and excels in multi-threaded workloads like video editing and rendering.
CPU Socket
The CPU socket determines compatibility with your motherboard. Intel and AMD have different socket types, and you'll need to ensure your CPU and motherboard use the same socket. Common Intel sockets include LGA 1700 (12th Gen), LGA 1200 (10th/11th Gen), and LGA 1151 (6th-9th Gen). AMD uses AM4 and AM5 sockets for Ryzen CPUs and sTRX4 for Threadripper CPUs.
CPU Cores and Threads
The number of cores and threads in a CPU determines its multi-tasking capabilities. More cores and threads generally mean better performance for demanding applications like video editing, 3D rendering, and heavy multitasking. For gaming, however, higher core clock speeds and strong single-core performance are more important than core count.
CPU Integrated Graphics
Some CPUs come with integrated graphics, also known as an iGPU (integrated Graphics Processing Unit). This can be useful if you don't plan on using a dedicated graphics card or if you need basic graphics capabilities for tasks like video playback or light photo editing. Intel CPUs typically have better integrated graphics than AMD CPUs.
CPU TDP (Thermal Design Power)
TDP refers to the maximum amount of heat a CPU can generate and dissipate. Higher TDP CPUs generally consume more power and require better cooling solutions. If you plan on overclocking or running demanding applications for extended periods, you'll want to choose a CPU with a higher TDP and a capable cooling system.
