Prices are ACTIVELY CHANGING due to Black Friday & Cyber Monday sales. We included some thoughts at the end based on them, but ultimately, we’ve given you the tools to make an informed decision if a particular price isn’t accounted for in this video!

In this video, we’re looking at the Best CPUs of 2022, including the top CPUs for gaming, Adobe Premiere, Photoshop, compression & decompression, and the best CPUs for programming and code compile. These Intel vs. AMD benchmarks also test the AMD Ryzen 7000 series against the existing Ryzen 5000 series, like the 5800X3D, and the older Intel 12100F and 10100. All the new CPUs that just came out were recently benchmarked for our reviews, so we can now review them for people building new gaming PCs (or workstations) for the end of the year. Common match-ups include the AMD R9 7950X vs. Intel i9-13900K, AMD R5 7600X vs. Intel i5-13600K, and more. We’ll also talk about the temporary price drops for Black Friday & Cyber Monday and how that impacts rankings (but those came out right before we rendered the video!).

Watch our round-up of the Best PC Cases of 2022!
