Question about the Black Friday Deal PCs

First things first, AMD is the better choice for a CPU, see the thread below...

But there's compromises in both builds in order to make them seem like a steal. The motherboard in the AMD is an older model and wn't be supported as long the B550 and X570. The power supply unit is also a more budget level which will limit any future upgradability. The RAM could also be faster (AMD chips love fast RAM!) and the Wifi card is a bit slow.
If you're going to choose out of the two... go AMD. Personally, I wouldn't pick either and go for a custom instead. That way I'd know I had an upgrade path for the future.
AMD Vs Intel
So some of you aren't aware of the reasons why so many people are heading away from Intel to AMD, so thought it would be important to lay that out for people to refer back to. A lot of you will go to cpubenchmark or userbenchmark to find performance metrics for CPU's. These sites are complete...

If you're referring to the last post on the AMD vs Intel thread, that's actually just highlighting that User Benchmark talk a load of rubbish. AMD are the clear leaders in terms of performance
Given your query I would suggest it would be in your interest to ask for advice on a custom build, rather than processor comparisons. I don't believe there would be a route for an informed decision without understanding all the background, and it would take a HUGE amount of reading and understanding to get there.
If you post up your budget, intended uses and the monitor you wish to pair the system with.... we can see what we can come up with to best suit your needs. We can of course explain a brief reasoning as to why we would make certain choices but I don't think getting into the nitty gritty would be beneficial.

Ah, I see. Same state of affairs.
I have a MSI Optix AG32CV Full HD 31.5” Curved LED Gaming Monitor, my budget is £1000 and its only being used for gaming. I saw the black Friday deals and I thought it was a good deal.
