I'm a gamer and I know that the GPU is the king pin for gaming but some games benefit from a nicely overclocked CPU and why can't we have a 5GHz processor without needing lots of good luck (an Intel processor that is capable of a nice overclock) and lots of cooling as once you start seriously overclocking a 6700K, the thing produces enormous amounts of heat!
As lots of others have already said, Intel have no competition from AMD, nor do NVidia, shame on you AMD that you have been so comprehensively beaten into submission when there would be plenty of customers willing to buy from you if you produced what they wanted.
I am completely unexcited by this story, move along, nothing of interest here...

So they are basically just increasing clocks and that's the main source of higher performance. Other than that still same old quad core.
Cherry picked benchmark/program so the reality is likely a bit different but regardless Zen shows potential. I fear that they can't get the clocks high enough but Zen+ might solve that one the process matures.
