Imagine having a mindset where you interpret a pragmatic response to a question is "shilling hard"
Tell me, where exactly is the "shill"?
Price point has to match performance point, AMD can't take a breakdown like my above musings and then slap an arbitrary premium on top because of scarcity. It just won't sell, especially with Zen 4 + AM5 coming in 6-9 months.
what did i say wrong? Wanna bet that Zen3d cache will sell extremely well? And for AM4 users Zen3d is the cheapest option to get leadership performance, while with ADL you have to buy motherboard too, and cooler if current isn't compatible. There are many AM4 users so AMD just need to keep them from going to Intel and it will be good til Zen 4 comes.Are you for real? "Whatever price they put it will sell well, every sample" So regardless of price/performance or how many are actually available, that's the measurement?
You've even gone against what he said in your own post, so I'm not sure what your issue is.
We all know where Gondar's biases lie, it's no secret. Go have a look at the guy's post history if you're convinced he doesn't shill for AMD.
I'd say $550-600 will be in the ballpark as AMD know enough people will pay a large premium for gaming marketed products.My initial thoughts were along the lines of the XT pricing so 5800X launch price + $50 ($499) but I feel AMD may want to market it as premium product so I'm going with $549 (5800X + $100).
It's only a cop out if you're trying to start some ****. Are you trying to start some ****? I suggest you move on before you descend into reportable thread trashing.
I would say less than £500 probably £450. I wonder what the 12900KS will cost though? What premium did Intel charge for the 9900KS 1 year after the launch of the 9th gen series and what was the price of the K at the time of launch for the KS?
To all those wondering why i have dragged Intel into it, it is because the 5800X3D will actuall be competing with the 12900KS but at least wth AMD we get some new technology as opposed to a little extra Mhz
On paper maybe, but means nothing in the real world.Intel (and the 12900ks) currently have the tech lead on their platform.
