We're covering the Best CPUs of 2024, looking at thousands of CPU benchmarks run across the year for AMD vs. Intel. Our focus today is wide, spanning the Best Overall CPU for 2024, Best Gaming CPUs in 2024, and comparisons in programming, video editing with Premiere, Adobe Photoshop, power efficiency, and more. This round-up aims to quickly get you up to speed on which CPU you should buy for your new computer, whether that's a gaming PC build or a workstation machine. We'll talk about the AMD R7 9800X3D, the 7950X, Threadripper parts, 5700X3D, and more, and from Intel, we'll cover the 13th and 14th gen sales, the lackluster 200 series not making the list (like the 285K), and a weird resurgence from the 12th Gen.
