Which processer should I go with for my Ue5 Pc build?

Should i go with i5 14600k with 250$ motherboard Or i7 14700k with 145$ but meh quality. Which would be best in long term?

Hey guys!
I’m trying to build my first pc for Ue5 and some basic blender.
I have two builds ready one with i5 14600k with a good 250$ motherboard
Or I go with i7 14700k with only 145$ motherboard but meh build quality

I need a system that I can use in long term without any problems

Links to both motherboards are down :point_down:

  1. MSI PRO Z790-P WiFi Motherboard - 24,500₹ (300$)

  2. MSI B760M Bomber WIFI - 12,000₹ (140$)

  3. MSI B760 Gaming Plus WiFi Motherboard - 21000₹ (250$)
    MSI B760 GAMING PLUS WIFI, ATX - Intel 13th/12th Gen - 12 Phases, DDR5, PCIe 4.0, 2.5G LAN, Wi-Fi 6E (Might be a overkill but maybe a great choice what do you think?)

What should I go with?

The fastest processor you can afford and an NVME main drive.

For example, a system using a processor with 16 Cores @ 4Ghz/ea will be approximately twice as fast as one using an 8-core processor @ 4Ghz, while a $300 motherboard will not increase system speed twofold over the $150 motherboard. It will increase speed some, but its only a few percent.

Parts benefits are multiplicative. Increasing core count and speed will net a greater benefit if you have a faster drive, and faster RAM. You can’t compute what you haven’t read from disk or RAM yet.

Thanks bro
