Intel i3 7350K or AMD Ryzen 1600?

Hello all,

I am looking to build a PC for my daughter as she starts secondary school in September. I will be buying the components in overall several months to spread the cost a bit however I have reached a bit of a sticking point over the CPU.

I do not want to spend more than £600-£700 and the machine is meant to act as a 'Jack of all trades (Homework, light gaming and a bit of Netflix etc)'. With this in mind I had set my sights on an Intel i3 7350K as the backbone of the build.

However the release of the recent AMD processors has made me have bit of a rethink especially as I can get a Ryzen 5 1600 for £30 more.

With the higher core count and improved multi tasking would I be better going for the Ryzen or stick with a dual core and go for better single threaded performance with the Intel?

My other issue is that I was really looking at a Mini ITX build which currently isnt possible with the Ryzen however I am prepared to wait if its woth it?

Any thought would be much appreciated!

Thank you

I did not find the right solution from the internet
