If the end top is around 5.8 GHz, it could be good for more budget CPUs.
In games single thread IPC is still king.

V-cache is the king

Cache is king, so is max tuned Ddr5 7000+ 😉
We want big cache and ultrafast tuned Ddr5.
From stock 4800c40 to tuned 7000c30, I gained 35% in min fps and average fps in BF 2042.

sadly it will still be good but not "good enough" I think in the end.

Education is important, but bigger numbers is importanter.

I hope they learned from the past fiasco where the bald guy gave an unrealistic example and people took it as literal attainable stock frequency ending up with AMD removing the number and just leaving the word GHz. Was rather funny though 😛

Systems not so future proof when AMD is around.

At launch, Lisa Su said the TDP was 170W, IIRC. Didn't say anything about socket power, but as that is a fixed ratio of 1.35X the TDP, it's not a surprise as the socket power for all AMD CPUs is figured that way, according to Hallock, and for an excellent reason: AMD motherboards will presumably be able to house some AMD CPUs past the 7000 series, etc. You always want to leave a little headroom. Robert Hallock interjected mistakenly that the 170W was the socket power. This is just not a big deal at all--Hallock made a simple error and corrected it the next day.
Hallock also stated that the 170W TDP would be for the highest end of the Desktop 7000 CPUs, that AMD would still be employing 65W and 105W CPUs with AM5. Hot Hardware had a nice interview with Hallock where he went over all of that stuff the day after launch. Additionally, Hallock said the engineering sample was not tapped out at 170W TDP during the demo, so 5.85GHz sustained is certainly believable.
Nobody knows things for certain, though, until they ship this fall, of course.

I really want to get my hands on one. But I have 2 gaming PC's and a laptop already.

that new fancy 5nm EUV process is looking pretty good.
