I was most likely going to stick with and AMD CPU, the intel power consumption and price per performance is a bit high for me. I’m mostly developing javascript and gaming so ultra high cpu performance isn’t as necessary.

> javascript and gaming

Both of which are heavily impacted by single-thread performance. So getting a high single-thread perf CPIU would be a good thing to do.
