No good uplift from Intel until around 2021 when servers get DDR5, so we probably get it for desktop later that year or 2022.. So if looking for an upgrade i suppose AMD looks a decent choice.

Depends how much difference there would be in single core perf from my 5820k though.
 
No thanks. You can do your own. I suggest you google what processor speed means.


You just compared a quad core chip with a quad core with HT :p

Lol

Do some research on cores and threads...then clocks then IPC...then cache...etc...then you won’t have to ask silly questions on the internet wether a b450 mobo will be compatible...:p

Err, still 4 cores. HT is just an IPC improvement. Speed bump according to you.

Keep digging your hole.
 
You can have a slower ghz chip being faster than a higher ghz chip...

So if you are basing speed bump purely on ghz then you are a noob...:p

I'm the noob. Is the 7700K a speed bump on a Q6600?

Speed bump captures everything apparently according to you.

Funny how you mentioned cache in your last post.

Checked the 3800X cache numbers against the 2700X?

Funny how you still think the 3800X is a "speed bump" on the 2700X, but that statement isn't true for the 7700K against the Q6600.

Show's how stupid a statement it is to make.

Then there is the stupid £400+ price estimates given it is $399.

You are arguing with yourself. :p lol
 
You're reading and replying mate. I see you've realised you can't get out of your hole.

Eh? Everything I have said is correct...plus $399 does not mean we will pay £315 you only have to have bought a piece of hardware recently to understand that...

You’re deluded.

Care to quote me?

You pulled £370 out your backside...

The 9900k was $499 in the US we can buy it here for £499

Same for 2080 ti....

It will be the same for a 3800x....

Where did you get £370 from ?

Don’t answer...I don’t care as your just trolling this thread :p

Because I can actually price things which aren't limited in supply. My estimate is within +/- £10 error.

2080ti also launched officially at $1199 and only dropped to $999 later. I don't believe the UK launch prices for the cheapest models failed the very simple calculation anyone can do.
 
Where did you get £370 from ?

I would imagine from $:£ conversion + 20% VAT

$1 US = £0.788525 GBP

$399 * 0.788525 = 314.621

314.621 * 1.2 = £377.55

So I would imagine i'll be around £379-399 here depending on cost of transportation and how much shops want to skim off the top.
 
Great good for you...congrats...

But you don’t actually know...with any new release we see price gouging from vendors...so I hope you’re right

So now you resort to price gouging as your defence. Cheapest price is never gonna break £400. £370 is what it will be.

If you actually paid attention to the two prior Ryzen launches it is easy to guess.

Ryzen launches have been pretty competitive for the last 2 launches. I don't expect that much extra to be taken. Transportation also tends to be massively overplayed. Think about how many processors you can ship in a single container, the per product cost is tiny. Also given it is coming from asia, the costs should be similar to the US.

£399 like I said...

Well at least it'd now down on the £400-£450 estimate I was rebutting which you decided to suddenly interject yourself in.

£399 is still too high though.

How much is a 9900K btw. Suddenly a price gap is appearing.

Also you never said what your definition for a "speed bump" was.
