Choosing PC for Programming. Fastests C++ app build
Unsolved
The Lounge
-
I am choosing hardware to build a PC.
The ways I want to use it:- Programming C++, Qt, Compiling, deploying
- Streaming how I am coding (not games)
- Virtualization. Running many instances of vms or dockers
I do not need to play games at all. That is why I do not consider discrete video adapter.
However for streaming it is needed to have nice integrated video chip.
I want fastest M2 SSD and 32gb of fastest RAM
The main concern is the CPU
According to my tasks what criteria of choosing a CPU?
Shall I choose AMD with many cores or stay with Intel which has better performance in games? -
Whether you go with AMD or Intel does not matter (well, maybe it will matter to your wallet ;)). Go for high core count - the more cores (and HT), the faster your compilation will be.
