We're talking about the best CPUs of 2023 to recap the year. Between new prices and benchmarks, we can now look at AMD vs. Intel offerings for the best gaming CPUs, best CPUs for Adobe Premiere, Photoshop, programming & compile, and efficiency, and more. This round-up is made to try and help PC builders who've been out of the game for a little while quickly get back up to speed, with comparisons between key CPUs like the AM5 Ryzen 7000 & Intel 14th "Gen" parts. Some of the top CPUs for the year include the Ryzen 7 7800X3D, AMD R7 5800X3D, Intel i3-12100F, Threadripper 7980X, and more that we'll talk about.
