1) Intel performs better for productivity workloads.. since it has much better single core performance and more cores.. since you dont care about upgrading every year intel is a better choce.
2) Zotac has 5 years warranty and RMA'ing is done via kaizen which is miles better than RPtech.
3) Deepcool's RMA is also pretty good.
4) This Deepcool case has 3 x 140mm's front and 120mm rear included.
5) You'll still need to add your peripherals.
 
A intel build will be better for productivity (13600k). Used RTX 30 series GPU will also help you save money, unless you plan on doing AV1 encodes then better to get RTX 40 Series.
 
Thx, Will compare Intel i5-14600KF & 13600K!

Encoding wise fine with 30-series! But now confused between 3060@16GB, 4060@16GB, 4070@12GB. Since 12GB to 16GB VRAM helps in AI LLM, optimizing it towards 16GB!
 
your config looks good stick with AMD , after five years you would be changing the processor and not the the whole rig .Nvidia GPU with larger VRAM will help you for quick transcoding especially AV1 encoding support on RTX4XXX series
 
Reworked on this based on the suggestions and to bring down the cost from 1.85Lakhs to 1.6Lakhs.
