i5 14400F
I list the i5-14400F as one of the budget Intel options people keep searching for, but the bigger theme this month is that a lot of Intel pricing is drifting up. If you find it on a good sale it can work, but you’ve got to compare it against Ryzen value and especially the crazy combo deals on the AMD side.
You'll be taken to Amazon to complete your purchase.
Pros
- +Decent budget CPU choice when priced correctly
- +Fits straightforward gaming builds
Cons
- -Intel pricing has been trending upward in this market
- -Can be outclassed by AMD bundles on total platform cost
