      I personally like AMD over Intel but I feel like this is a solid build with the 10700K and Z490 if the price isn't too much of an issue. No bottlenecking gonna occur here. You would still need peripherals so don't forget to count in your monitor, keyboard, mouse, etc, if you haven't already. Just to further comment on the price, there are "other" means of obtaining windows os for much less.

        Yep that's a nice system, actually very similar to mine right now. Your PSU watts is matched well and the 10700k is a really good deal lately.

        Nice setup, but as @ANonABento - I'd go with AMD ;)

        The specs you mentioned above is a solid killer machine, but as everyone mentioned AMD vs Intel is entirely up to you and your usage of the machine. Cheers!
