VERDICT
Recommended Ryzen™ 7 5800X
Near tie on G-SCORE—Ryzen™ 7 5800X is direction, not destiny (62 vs 61). Platform planning: match cooling and board tier to 32 MB L3 cache, 8 / 16, up to 4.7 GHz. The biggest gaps show up in Content Creation Index, +7%, Compute Index leading +6%; if that is your daily work, Ryzen™ 7 5800X is the easier pick. The 7% edge in Content Creation Index is the usable takeaway. Bottom line: treat “Recommended” as sort order—your main app index is still the judge.
