Processor.The thing which is the heart of a PC.The component without which a PC cannot run any program let alone that you can't even boot into an OS.Choosing a processor,is a very tough decision to make.Especially in the Intel vs AMD era,everyone is in a dilemma.So,today I am going to help you in choosing a processor 20,000 rupees.

AMD

1.Ryzen 5 3600

Price:₹19,500

Link:Ryzen 5 3600(Amazon.in)

The best CPU in the entire list for all the multitaskers out there.Pure performance is what you get with this chip.This beast can beat any equivalent Intel PC in editing and now tries to catch up with it in gaming.This beast shreds Intel in multi-threaded test and is on par with it on single threaded tasks.Its specs are-

2.Ryzen 7 2700

Price:₹17,000

Link:Ryzen 7 2700(Amazon.in)

This is the perfect CPU for those who say "More Cores=More performance"which is true.This thing shreds through editing things even sometimes beating the Ryzen 5 3600 and also beats in multi -threaded tests due to its 8 cores  and sixteen threads.Sadly,it does not hold up well in gaming compared to the R5 3600 by 10-15 fps.So ,this CPU is ideal for producivity workloads.Its specs are-

• 8 cores and 16 threads.
• Base clock of 3.2 GHz which can be boosted upto 4.2 GHz
• TDP of 65W.
• Based on 12 nm process.
• Supports Dual channel 2933 MHz RAM.

Intel

1.Intel i5-9600 KF

Price:₹17,900

Link:Intel i5-9600KF(Amazon.in)

The best gaming Intel processor in Amazon.in for under 20000 rupees right now.This thing was so expensive at launch but now is available for a killer deal.Now,I one thing to keep in mind when going with Intel is that it is not good at editing or productivity workloads compared to its AMD counterparts,so it is only good in gaming.One thing to keep in mind is that it requires a discrete graphics card and there is no integrated graphics.If you want the integrated graphics go for the Intel i5-9600K which comes with Intel UHD 630 but costs 4000 rupees more.Its specs are-

• 6 Cores and 6 threads.
• Has a base frequency of 3.7 GHz which can be boosted upto 4.6 GHz.
• It is an unlocked processor.
• TDP of 95W.
• Based on the 14 nm process.
• Supports upto 128 GB DDR4 memory at 2666 MHz dual channel.
• 9 Mb cache.
• PCIE Gen 3 support.

2.Intel i5-9400F

Price:₹14,300

Link:Intel i5-9400F(Amazon.in)

This like the best Intel processor under the 15000 rupees segment.Unlike the 9600 KF this thing is only designed for gaming and not for hardcore editing.Also,like the Intel i5- 9600 KF, it requires a discrete graphics card so if you need a integrated graphics Intel solution you have got to spend your money on the above 20k Intel segment.This handles games better than the Ryzen 7 2700 and manages to keep up with the Ryzen 5 3600.Its specs are-

• 6 cores and 6 threads.
• Base clock of 2.9 GHz which can be boosted upto 4.1 GHz
• TDP of 65W.
• Based on 14 nm process.
• Supports upto 128 GB DDR4 memory at 2666 MHz dual channel.
• Comes with a bundled cooler.
• 9 Mb Cache.
• PCIE Gen 3 support.

Conclusion

After all this ,What I can tell you is that all these are very capable chips for this price,so now the question arises which people should go for which?

If you are a pure gamer and do nothing but gaming go for the Intel 9600 KF or the Intel i5 9400F if you are in a budget.

If you are professional editor and want a PC to handle the heavy producivity workloads go for the Ryzen 7 2700 as it will not fail 

you.

If you are a multitasker who does both editing and gaming in a single PC then go for the Ryzen 5 3600 for its sheer performance and power.

Note:Before choosing any of the above mentioned processors please be sure to check compatibility with the motherboard you are using and if you are using a GPU please check whether there is a bottleneck with your GPU on the CPU you have chosen or vice versa.Also make sure whether the processor you have chosen requires a discrete GPU.
