i am hoping nvida will drop in some budget cards to compete tho
It's just you and me I'm afraid.Pricing sucks!!
Everybody else is happy with £400 for the cheapest 8c. The only 8c.
FFS. Ah well. I don't have to buy it
Card availability for customers
Nah you don’t want it. Leave it for me.
So they've finally caught up with (stock) intel for games, and are charging a fat wad more for it?
i bet you there will be a 5700X SKU that is cheaper...anyway 3000 seris CPU prices wont be dropping much on the back of these.
And yet when Nvidia and intel do it everyone says "well done great" and AMD consistently bring both Nvidia and intel back in line so ya all can shut the F up and suck on it, AMD cant win apparently so sure hike the price imo. *mic drop

Its actually £450 for an 8C,but you can get a Ryzen 9 3900 for £325.
I don't know a lot, but they were measuring the 5950X against 10900K and showing some fairly modest victories. The 10900K is GBP 559 and they just said the 5950X will be USD 799 so GBP 750 at best. That's not exactly good value then?

Glad I got the 3950x for 600 bucks (golden sample)
Yawn
Errmm not impressed TBH from what I see.
maybe 6-8% faster for gaming than a 10900, at 200 dollars more.
Add to that a mobo and I'll take an i9 9900 update my bios save aprox 400 notes over a zen 3 plus mobo and only be 8% behind at worst.
I don't know what I am missing but it doesn't sound like the revolution I was hoping for.

So the prices have basically all gone up by $50?

i would suspect its because most programs are coded woefully and dont take advantage of more cores yet
The cheaper 5900 also beats it handidly, they were just showing you that it also ROFLSTOMPS the Intel offerings in Content workloads aswell as gaming, basically saying its the elite tier best CPU you can buy for any workload.

Certainly not going to bother upgrading from 3900X.
