I9 14900K or Ryzen 9 9950X ?
I asked my current host, who offers a dedicated server with a Ryzen 9 9950X, if they had servers with the latest Intel, to which they replied: “This processor is not the most powerful on the market. It's far surpassed by our Ryzen 9 series. What's more, this generation of processor has only 8 cores and 8 “performance” threads, unlike our Ryzens, which offer 12/24 or 16/32.
These processors don't handle workloads as effectively as the Ryzens.”
What do you think?

What he says about the i9 14th gen isn't exactly correct, but I would take a 9950x over the i9 14th gen anyway especially if you know that you will be using the entire CPU not only half of it (aka the 16 performance threads).
