I'm still running 3570K so 8700K looks pretty tempting

In aus the 7700k is $459 and the 1800x is $659....even if the 8700k was $659 it would still be a way better cpu for the money, especially for gamers.
Can you tell me why are you comparing the 1800X to the 7700K? Compare it to 1500X or maybe 1600/X. LMAO.
.
And people should stock comparing the new I7 with ryzen 7, the best and most honest comparison is vs 1600X.
+100
Well, best bang for buck will be i5-8600k for gamers i think 6/6 is more than enough for gaming. Then, we should wait and see what will zen2 bring on the table in terms of gaming.
7600K is 6-7% faster (in the initial reviews, since than, Ryzen got faster in some games at least, like RotTR) in FHD gaming than the 1600, 2% faster in 1440P and equal in 4K. 8600K will be maybe 1-2% more compared to the 7600K. Speaking of the +50-60 EUR extra cost compared to the 1600 and the higher mobo prices (Z for the 7600K and B for the Ryzen) -combined, you may get a +100$ price tag -, I don't know how on earth can you say is best bang for buck.
So it´s basically the same prices as the previous 7700/7600K but with 2 extra cores.
No, not really. The prices raised for the K versions for about 30 EUR...

That's 2 less theads than what is currently available...what I currently have, and it will have similar clocks and ipc as current chips. Maybe slightly better.
Why would any skylake or kaby lake owner uograde to a new cpu and new chipset and likely the cost of a new windows key....for likely no increase in performance.
That would be the worst case of sidegrade/downgrade insanity I have ever heard of.
You seriously think hyperthreading is equal to a physical core?

Not everyone has i7 and 6 real cores (i5-8600k) probably gonna beat 4 real cores with ht but not by a big margin. 8th gen will be better choice for people who have older systems like me.
