I don't care.
After 5 years away AMD slapped a mid range £160 6 core on the table and it beat Intel's £450 HEDT, that just shows how absolutely pathetic, fat and complacent Intel had got.
One brand or the other i don't care which the fact is Intel took us for **nts.
Did you buy a £450 HEDT cpu?
No you bought a £170 4690K........
If you don't like the price then you don't buy it...... If people will pay it then Inte will charge it.
Same as nvidia, hasn't stopped you purchasing a 1070 though..... hypocrite.
