In your scenario, I'd go with the 9900k.

Thanks.

What types of projects are you running?

Are you doing video editing/rendering?

Do you need Thunderbolt-3?

Are you running ProTools?

 

There's zero risk running the 9900k with all cores locked at 5GHz.

 

I'm working at 96k inside sonar not many sample libraries or virtual instruments just high audio track counts with multiple plugins. Nebula 3 pro is my biggest cpu hog. No video editing or rendering going and I'm afraid I don't know what thunderbolt-3 is.

My current setup is a quadcore i7-3770.

I'm building a new pc and don't plan on overclocking or boosting anything (noobie to afraid to tinker). Would a ryzen 3800x or intel i9 900kf be better?
