Intel Comet Lake-S (up-to Core i5-10600 ) series pricing listed at etailer
Quite often before a release, you'll see some etailers listing prices, some are posted by mistake, the others are simply clickbait. However, the 10th Core series Comet Lake S processors we've been talking about for months now, have been listed at Chech and Slovakian stores to a certain extent.
You'll spot prices running from 80 to 279 EUR with VAT, that last one is the Core i5-10600. As you will have noticed, the higher-end SKUs have not been listed, like Core i7 and Core i9 series.
It seems Comet Lake series is priced higher than Coffee Lake, but that difference is marginal, also take into account that these prices are not official. Below a listing, as spotted and posted courtesy to videocardz but spotted by momomo_us.
Coffee Lake-S CPUs | Listed Price | Comet Lake-S CPUs | Listed Price | Difference |
---|---|---|---|---|
Core i5-9600 | 264 EUR | Core i5-10600 | 279 EUR | + 15 EUR |
Core i5-9500 | 240 EUR | Core i5-10500 | 253 EUR | + 13 EUR |
Core i5-9400 | 241 EUR | Core i5-10400 | 227 EUR | – 14 EUR |
Core i5-9400F | 181 EUR | Core i5-10400F | 194 EUR | + 13 EUR |
— | — | Core i3-10320 | 203 EUR | — |
Core i3-9300 | 184 EUR | Core i3-10300 | 190 EUR | + 6 EUR |
Core i3-9100 | 141 EUR | Core i3-10100 | 153 EUR | + 8 EUR |
Pentium G5600 | 114 EUR | Pentium G6600 | 116 EUR | + 2 EUR |
Pentium G5500 | 100 EUR | Pentium G6500 | 103 EUR | + 3 EUR |
Pentium G5400 | 71 EUR | Pentium G6400 | 80 EUR | + 9 EUR |

Steam hardware survey is telling solely about PC gamers on the Steam platform, which is not the whole of PC market. Also as mentioned its largely made up of older systems built when the only other option was AMD FX (which people were still actually buying). AMD has been steadily outselling Intel for over a year at this point, but Intel still has a huge install base. They simply aren't pricing they're units to sell against the competition, and simply relying on their name alone. The reality is they are priced higher in the after market, so that (certain?) OEMs can still command higher prices for their products. Facts are that AMD are currently superior in the vast majority of workloads at pretty much every price point a typically wider margin than the ones they lose at. A Dell 9900K system is at least a grand more than a 3900X, and no AMD systems are in the work category at all. Crazy when that's where they're most advantageous.
What's also crazy is there are people that buy OEM "gaming" PCs that aren't gamers, but understand that those models are powerful for actual work.

Vast majority of people were also buying Intel because AMD performance wasn't on par for nearly a decade. That's changed and I think you'll see more people take advantage of dropping a new CPU into their existing AM4. If Intel didn't require a new mobo with every gen, bet your ass people would take advantage of it.
For your second point, again, AMD is still playing catch up. There's many more Intel chips in the Steam surveys because Intel has held such a strong lead for so long in gaming. Not everyone upgrades as frequently as the enthusiasts here, so they should have 80% of the market share. If AMD keeps it up, we'll start to see AMD creep up in market share in these surveys over the next few years.
I'll be blunt and say your view seems dated and biased. 3700X is my first AMD CPU ever and I'm more than happy to pop a next gen Zen in my AM4 if the performance is there. Intel makes a fine CPU, but AMD does now too. I really hope people stop championing brands at some point. Build to get the most performance within your budget and forget that brand names exist. Best way to play.
I just want to be Captain Obvious and throw in "that also applies for servers". For all the mongo doomsayers preaching that Intel owns over 9000% of the server market share. Yeah, wait until contracts expire and the current bribery deals Intel have with companies run out. No one is going to buy Intel server chips anymore if they have the slightest clue about anything or don't have ulterior motives, their value is a galaxy apart right now and Intel isn't catching up any time soon. Not to mention Intel's server performance is at the bottom of a garbage can compared to AMD even if price wasn't an obstacle, which it always is.
Also, I'm not done laughing at "vast majority of people will buy a motherboard even if they don't have to" L to the O to the L. I don't know one person on AM4 who bought a new motherboard unless they had to. Most enthusiasts will buy an AM4 board of/with X quality/features for a future upgrade, not "lol I'll buy stuff I don't need".
Hey I have a car and I don't need another, I'm gonna go buy a bag of chips and a soda so I might as well buy a new car while I'm at it.
