I'm in the market for a new CPU, and I'm wondering what you all think is the best option for programming. I mainly work on web development, some data analysis, and occasionally dabble in machine learning. My current setup is struggling with larger projects and compile times.

I've been considering both Intel and AMD options, but I'm not sure which would offer the best performance for coding tasks. Multi-core performance is important to me, but single-core speed matters too. Budget isn't a huge concern, but I'd like to get good value for my money.

What CPUs are you using? Any recommendations or experiences to share? Thanks in advance for your insights!

The "best" CPU really depends on your specific needs. Are you doing a lot of compilation? Running multiple VMs? Or just writing and testing code? For most coders, a mid-range CPU like an Intel Core i7-14600K or AMD Ryzen 7 7700X would be more than adequate. Invest the money you save into more RAM or a larger SSD.

The new announced AMD Ryzen 9000 SERIES should be the best choices.
