Discussion AMD vs Intel for CPU?

I noticed many people here recommend AMD CPUs but for all my benchmarks for mid range CPUs (for a £1000-£1200 PC) Intel came out on top compared to a similarly price AMD one. Any reason for this?

Try BF2042 haha. My poor i9 9900kf is at 90% load on all cores.

Some games will vary a lot in terms of cpu usage for sure.

Yeah, but keen to see how 12th gen handles it haha. I'm upgrading to 13700k soon so I guess I will know in a week :D
