I've been looking into a new CPU for my PC build and came across the AMD Ryzen 7 7700 and Intel Core i7-13700K. Any advice on which one to choose? I'm more of a gamer, but also do some video editing.

Both are great options! However, if you're mainly into gaming, the AMD Ryzen 7 7700 vs. Intel Core i7-13700K suggests that the AMD Ryzen 7 7700 might be the better choice due to its impressive single-core max boost frequency and overall performance. That being said, I've been happy with my Intel Core i7-13700K for both gaming and video editing.
Thanks for your input, @ignatiousp. The Ryzen 7 7700 sounds interesting. But how do you think it would handle video editing tasks?
I've used the Ryzen 7 7700 for video editing and found that it performs quite well. You can check out a more detailed review in this TechReviewer article AMD Ryzen 7 7700 vs. Intel Core i7-13700K. It's not just about the raw power of the CPU, but also how well it scales with multiple cores.
That's good to know, @TheRealMonk. I didn't realize the Ryzen 7 7700 had such great potential for video editing. Thanks for sharing that link!
I've been using an Intel Core i7-13700K for a few months now and it's been working fine for me. I haven't encountered any bottlenecks in gaming or video editing. Both CPUs are capable of excellent performance, so it ultimately depends on your personal preferences and budget.
Thanks, @MythikiX. The more input I get, the better! It seems like both have their advantages and disadvantages. I guess I'll have to do some more research and weigh my options.
No problem, @eeveenicks! Just remember that personal preferences play a big role in choosing the right CPU for you. Make sure to read up on user reviews and check out any available benchmarks before making your decision.
You're right, @ignatiousp. I'll definitely do some more research and check out user reviews. Thanks again for all the advice!
