Choosing the Right PC Components in 2026
1. The Processor (CPU): Intel Core Ultra vs. AMD Ryzen
The "Core i" era has evolved. Intel's latest Core Ultra (Series 2) processors use the LGA 1851 socket and feature built-in NPU for AI tasks. Meanwhile, AMD Ryzen 9000 Series continues to lead in gaming efficiency on the AM5 platform. For budget builds, the Ryzen 5 5600G remains a top-searched value king in BD.
2. Motherboard & Socket Compatibility
Always ensure your motherboard matches your CPU socket.
- Intel Arrow Lake: Requires Z890 or B860 (LGA 1851).
- AMD Ryzen 7000/9000: Compatible with B650, X870, or B850 (AM5).
3. DDR5 RAM: The New Standard
In 2026, DDR5 RAM is the standard for performance. We recommend at least 16GB 6000MHz for gaming and 32GB+ for professional video editing or 3D rendering to ensure smooth multitasking.

Component FAQ
Can I use DDR4 RAM with a Z890 Motherboard?
No. Newer platforms like Intel's Z890 (LGA 1851) and AMD's AM5 strictly support DDR5 RAM only. For DDR4, you must stick to older generations like Intel 12th/13th/14th Gen or AMD AM4.
What is an "NPU" in new processors?
The Neural Processing Unit (NPU) is a dedicated part of the CPU designed to handle AI tasks (like background noise removal or AI image generation) more efficiently, saving battery and improving speed.
