Haha. Poor guy, I really pity you. There is about 4-8% difference between the rival products ON FHD with a 2080 Ti. This means that in normal circumstances (1440P or 4K gaming with the best GPU or FHD gaming with slower GPU-s), the difference is 0. Plus Zen3 will arrive in some months, and will get another rumoured ~15% IPC gain. That means it will at least equal this difference, or even be a bit better. Poor guy, really.

LOL

Can i reuse this sentence for the next foreseeable future of this bullshit posting on those forums?
With little changes it adapts very well to most of those intel/amd and ati/nvidia debates this forum has been polluted with last 2 years.
I mean.. if you really want to be harsh that's arguing on the Internet for you.
Making generic bold statements with little to back them up.
I certainly don't lay claim to that particular sequence of words so by all means, it's not like you need my permission.

It depends. ATM i have an "old" 8600K and Z370 mobo and a "new" 2700X and B450. The 8600K at 5000Mhz outperforms the Ryzen by about 20% in games like ArmA3, Far Cry 5 or TW Warhammer 2. But in most games, at 1440p, they are about the same, as you say +- 4%. It comes down to what you play and if you have a powerful GPU and 144Hz or above monitor.
I still have not decided if i will keep the Ryzen 2700x or thei5 8600K or sell them both and get a B550 + Ryzen 3xxx or Z490 and i7 10xxx :shrug:

Lets be honest here. This old discontinued 8700k can be faster in games than any amd cpu on the market. Yes, difference is small but its there. It will take few more zen generations to get there and thats if intel did nothing.
