Hey Hilbert, Videocardz has the fine print with the article. It is conversation worthy

AMD up 2.5% and nVidia is up 1.5% on the share price
Intel down 0.4%

Im way happier with my Ryzen 7 2700X 8 cores 16 threads on 4.3GHZ all cores for $190. That is me coming from Intel only products for past 19 years.
Never going back to Intel rip off over priced products for only a few percentage in performance that 99% of users will never even come close to using 24/7.
I did a benchmark and got the highest score... now back to mine craft lol.

@JamesSneed
maybe for 720p gaming.
whats the difference to amd when running 2070/2080ti @1080p/above ? right
kakiharaFRS
there's a huge difference in some games even at 1080p, if you use g-syn freesync or something with much higher requirements black frame insertion (ulmb etc...) BFI only works as expected at 100+fps/Hz
when you play modded games or use ENBs reshade which lower fps sometimes drastically, "vanilla" as we call them games benchmarks are meaningless..your 150fps become 80 and those 80 might well go under 60, in such cases those 20fps from "vanilla" 150-170fps benchmark become critical because that delta usually sticks when going down
that's my skyrim, 2K,4K even 8K textures aren't free

sadly no still the ridiculously low 16pcie lanes + 24 from chipset (but all for nvme,sata,ethernet,usb etc...)
I still haven't gone Ryzen 3900x because of the shenanigans of bios agesa updates and now time has passed so I'll just wait for the 3950x or Intel new lineup, I need more lanes for thunderbolt but I can live with only 3.1gen2 USB-C till then

Thanks, I'll politely decline the offer and the brand.

@Glottiz
except almost everyone (as in+80% on this planet) will be better of getting a bigger gpu if they dont own something like a 2080/ti.
e.g. getting this cpu and pairing it with anything lower than 2070S would be a waste of money, as gains on the gpu side will be much bigger.

This will be great gaming CPU , no need to worry about the silicone lottery with this puppy , top binned 9900 and the price if the retailers don't go greedy and keep it as it is seems fair to me .

Base frequency up to XXXX - its bad marketing or something has to be really wrong.. 40 PCI-E lines.. its pure marketing or we will see new chipset / socket again..
Kaarme
product page says 16 lines. The bigger problem is that one year warranty mentioned. It's exceedingly strange if it's not an error in the text. Normally CPUs have a three years warranty, after all. If it was just a single year for this, it would mean Intel knows something that we don't.
It's just some marketing fib. Intel's own
