Hi guys,
Based on your experience which one is the better choice to run 2-3 VM-s on a Windows host? (the VMs: Main vm: Kali Linux i like to run it with 3-4 cores and around 4-8GB of RAM, the other VMs: mainly simple linux servers with low hw requirements)
The competitors are: Intel i5 9400F (6 cores, no HT), Ryzen 5 2600 (6 cores, 12 threads).
Tbh I prefer the i5, but the Ryzen is much more powerful (but I'm afraid it's not that stable as the i5)
Thanks in advance guys!

Re: Host: WIN10 - Intel or AMD
Whatever you choose, remember that simple rule:
- Total CPUs for your guests + 1 ≤ Host CPU cores.
- Total RAM+vRAM+overhead for your guests ≤ Host available RAM + some.
