417 Euro's is around £365 right now (although prices could change) Considering the 7700k retailed around £340-£350 paying an extra £15/25 for two extra cores seems fine. wouldn't mind if it dropped another £50, but it's very unlikely that would happen from the get go anyway

Basically just swap the Euro sign for the Pound. If you're lucky you might get an 8700K for just under £400 but I wouldn't hold my breath, not yet anyway. IMO,for a 6c/12t processor, it's way to expensive 😱

my i5 4690k was £190 :/

The 7700k is $459au and the 1800x is $659....
There is no way in hell it will cost more than the 1800x so I'm sure the price will be fine my me if I decide to dive in.
My 6700k cost me just over $500au I think so even if the 8700k costs a bit more than the 7700k it will still be great value for anyone.

417 euros is about $608 Canadian. By comparison, the 1800X currently sells for $599 on Newegg.ca. That's a hard sell.

First about your previous statement "have plagued", so they don't now, so it's irrelevant for a new build, which an 8700k would be, so your comment there is irrelevant.
Second, almost no games utilize more than 4 cores, that's why ryzen is slower, so 6 cores won't benefit gaming again, rendering your second comment irrelevant, again.

In 3 months it will probably sit at 350€ as happened with previous gens.

Glad to see another person wasting money to get an i7 to play at 1080p.
Cause thats the only time Intel is faster.
At 1440p and higher, AMD is on par/faster, while also providing better multi thread performance AND is cheaper.
So unless you're running decade old software that needs ST, getting the cheaper ryzen and spending the difference on a faster gpu will see bigger gains than going intel.
Not of course if you drink the blue coolaid..
