agree with that, should have gone with a cheaper chip either from intel or AMD. that 10900K is defintely not worth the 600 smackers

Mistake? 10900K over 5950/5900/5800?

I wouldnt go down the KF route myself. having an iGPU is highly useful. should your GPU pack up or some bug comes up that is plaguing your system. you can always test it out with the iGPU on the K part. also having the iGPU means you can still use th PC while waiting for a replacement GPU. it is like an insurance. but it is not worth £150.
I would suggest you look at the 10850K or the 10700K part if you insist on intel platform
OR just have a cheap gpu as a back up, i had a 1060 for this purpose lol.

Unless you need QuickSync, I'd go KF and bank the saving.
I am saying dont go with KF. go with the K part. but get the 10850k or 10700k.
this is your gaming and main rig, if something happens, you still want it to run it. so thats where the iGPU on the CPU is useful should the GPU fail.
Thanks, I hadn’t seen those ones. I’d still say there are some titles where AMD is better (sometimes a lot better) and others where Intel wins, it’s not comprehensive one way or the other.
Ah gotcha pc-guy sorry I read your post wrong. My fault.
Tbh, I want to go with the 10900K
OCUK have the 10850 in stock @ £500 so similar price to the KF.
And the 10900 has performance advantage against the 10700 by some 5-10fps which Im willing to pay for.

Been around since 2nd Gen Sandy Bridge. Uses the iGPU for video encode/decode and it's very efficient. It still works if the iGPU is disabled as a graphics card.
Note you still talking waffle when I gave absolute non conjecture numbers above. Please dude stop talking rubbish. Numbers of posts on an enthusiast forum does not mean the product is flawed - It's your "non biased" opinion, and it is opinion, that is flawed.
I literally have Nanya A-Die (Chinese import memory) with RGB that cost £30 for 2x8gb sticks on the wifes Zen machine. Guess what its 3200 and is running overclocked at 3600. I guess memory isn't as important as perhaps it was on earlier Zen chips. Opinion does not equate to actual facts.
Go look at my Whurple Project if you don't believe me, in fact here have a picture:
Vince/Dg perhaps take it to a direct conversation?
Switched from 10900K to KF. Saved £150 notes. Can go towards another m.2 drive later
Thank you all for your insights. Happy for the healthy discussions.
Thats a good deal on a decent CPU
As I said if it suits the needs its right for you 
£150 on a dedicated 1tb ssd, there you have dedicated gaming ssd
Much better place to spend the difference
