AMD Ryzen vs Intel I5 o I7 for Bias amp 2 and Bias FX 2?
-
Hello, I am a user of several Positive Grid products for PC and I have to buy a new computer. I would like to know which option would be better, if AMD Ryzen or Intel I5 or I7 to use Bias FX and Bias Amp. Thank you.

@arandasanchezoscar I would suggest the highest spec if possible!

The new Ryzen 3rd Generation processors match the Intel stuff in IPC and have more cores. I don't see how you could go wrong with that. Just make sure you get enough RAM and that it's faster than 2666 Mhz, recommend over 3000 if possible.

It so totally doesn't matter -- CPUs don't even break a sweat doing audio processing these days.
I'm running multiple instances of Bias FX, multiple Arturia soft synths, and 10-20 tracks of audio with compression, eq, and reverb simultaneously in my DAW (Cakewalk), and that's on a machine built around an Intel i7-950 @ 3.0GHz -- a mid-tier $300 cpu from 2009.
