People don't get banned because you don't agree with their views or opinions.
I thought these two trolls "jwb1" and "karma777police " are already banned from the forum? I never read anything good on their post as all are a product of their subjective insane minds. Anyway, I'm not getting my hopes up with these another Skylake rehash, someone wake me up when Intel was able to get their Arch on 7 or 5nm process. Thanks.

Intel may have a slight edge in gaming but at what cost?
If you don't care about heat, power usage and security holes then go ahead and buy Intel 14nm++++++++++++++++.
Honestly though i no longer care about which CPU is best for gaming because they are all pretty good these days.
My next upgrade will be the best all round chip not the best fps possible chip.
Seriously what i want is either a 4700X or 4900X as i believe they will be plenty fast enough while using "hopefully" only 65w or close.

AMD has its own "security holes". And Intel is fixing theirs in-silicon with every new CPU launch and revision.

@jwb1 is not about views or opinions, some posts are actually flame starters. For no reason.
Not speaking about you now in this particular thread.
Also just to remember that intel nomenclature is 14nm++ they never moved to the third +. And comet lake and rocket lake will still be named 14++. the 14++++++++++++++++ isn't that funny.

The packaging says : Gaming happens with Intel. They should have added: But your still better of with an AMD.
And no I am not a fan boy, I just buy the best price/performance cpu I can get.
Gaming happens with Intel could not be more true. I got AMD 3900x and runs games slower than my 3+ years old i7 7820x overclocked to 4.7Ghz. I gained absolutely nothing from Ryzen 3900x.
I have a very hard time believing you bought an AMD CPU. You spread more hype about Intel's upcoming products than Intel themselves.
Regardless, you're probably losing what, 5-10FPS when you're likely in the hundreds? Wow, what a major loss...
If you don't know what you would have gained from a 3900X then why did you "buy one"? You know very well that your 7820X would've been as good or better for gaming. Already having a good Intel CPU like a 7820X and replacing it with a high-end Ryzen strictly for gaming purposes is just plain stupid.
Thats not really true though. Intel is better in very high FPS situations. When you move to 2k or 4k there isn't much difference and its not so much GPU bottlenecks. AMD simply has a little bit of a latency issue using chiplets so they can't hit those high FPS like Intel does in some cases. I highly suspect zen3 this fall will fix that latency issue at least for 8-cores and under that is if the rumored single 8-core ccx is true.
I'd like to give some perspective here. I have the opportunity to try out a lot of hardware because of my work - we see a lot of server hardware and have several clients who require high end workstations. Disclaimer -I have not tried out any of the Intel 10-series parts, either the x299 refresh or (obviously) the upcoming socket 1200 desktop parts, or any of the TR40 platform / comparable X399 Rome Epyc parts. That said, I have used, tested, or personally own: 7700k, 8700k, 9900k, various X299, various current Xeon "Platinum", "Gold", and "Silver" parts, 1950x, 2700x, 2950x, 3950x, various 1st gen Epyc parts. In my experience, the average user isn't going to notice an appreciable difference between any of these with the exception of 7700k (4c/8t is notably slower in some tasks), Xeon Silver (due to low base clocks), and 1950x (too many quirks to be a good daily driver).
If you're a competitive gamer who needs (?) 200+fps at 1080p, you probably want mainstream Intel. If you need to do any serious work tasks, absolutely go for AMD or any HEDT / server parts. If you're gaming at 1440p or 4k along with other general work/computing tasks - get an 8+ core part from either company, the best that your budget allows and ideally made in the past 2 years. Honestly, I don't think many would notice a difference between 12, 16, 18 cores and a recent 6 core part outside of scenarios like streaming, media encoding, and running VMs.
I personally prefer AMD these days due to performance per $ concerning workstation tasks, but you really cannot go wrong with any newer chip with many cores
