The last Intel machine I will ever build was my 13900K, primarily because I liked the fact that I could use cheaper DDR4 memory.

Next rig and everything for the forseeable future will be AMD. I've been a fanboy since the Athlon XP days - took a detour for a bit - but can't wait to get back.

Even if Intel wasn't chugging so badly right now, their recent handling of the overvoltage and oxidation fiasco where they only thought about covering their asses instead of working the problem would leave me with a pretty disgusting taste in my mouth if I bought anything Intel for the foreseeable future. Customer relations should mean something, just look at Noctua.

Same. But already built a 3700X and then a 7700X.

I've got this feeling the wife she's gonna upgrade her 3700X to a 7700X soon, meaning I'll get build a 9000 series AMD!
