Half-Life Alyx has me considering a VR capable build (RIP my wallet).
logicalincrements.com is showing all AMD processors except the i9-9900K which seems comparable to the much less expensive Ryzen 7 3700X.
I guess I just need reassurance that AMD is the way to go. I'd be sticking with a Nvidia GPU.
Ryzen 5 2600x here. The only driver issue I've experienced was due to initially using windows 8, which was not supported. I've had little issue navigating their wizards and apps with my minimal amount of software experience. I have a similar build to killbills, with a msi b450. My chip is at a stable OC of 4.2.
It was just the first OS I had on hand. It was actually my AMD GPU that had the issue. My cpu worked fine out of the box.
And you're not experiencing any driver issues doing an AMD build? I know last time I had AMD Hardware that was an issue for me.
