Does the price seem high to anybody else? The 3600 is what? $200? $100 difference in what should be the same class seems odd. Maybe I'm wrong.
1080p is better for CPU comparisons. 1440p/2160p are where the gaps start to close because it's GPU dependent. Like if you look at a 3600 vs 3700x it can be like a couple frames apart at 4K. Showing 4K benchmarks would generally show small enough upgrades that it wouldn't be exciting.

Could have just been the stream but that Borderlands 3 performance was actually not great. Some obvious stutter in there.

There will be 5600 without X for sure but yeah, they raised the prices...
No PS5 SSD to make it smooth...

The gap closes because you're limited by the gpu. Do you want a GPU comparasion?

It's still way too expensive if you want to buy an 8 core 16 thread CPU to match the next gen consoles.
$450 on a CPU alone is just nuts. AMD used to be far more affordable back in the day.

Yeah, I agree. I think $399 would've been the sweet spot.My sight went straight here

They seemed to be a lot more comparable to Intel 3 years ago. Now they just destroy them.

What for?
They've been pretty clear on it before:
X570 or b550 = guaranteed compatibility
Anything else = depends on your motherboard vendor

The 10700k + Asus Z490 motherboard bundle with $150 discount on Newegg is better than these high prices

This CPU will beat the 10700K, might as well charge a small premium.

Does it have ddr5 RAM support? I don't know what are my bebefits in gaming coming from a 9900k at 5ghz on all cores apart from PCI-E 4. I I think of this I gotta upgrade Motherboard, CPU, M. 2 SSD, and I have to buy an RTX 3080,it is too muchMy sight went straight here

Then buy the 3700x?

Me for definite. Still rocking an i7700 and need a good CPU to complete my build.

Yeh I think that's what it was. Borderlands 3 was 61 fps as well I think.
Any idea how those numbers compare to the 3080?

I'm on the non X 2600 and thought about upgrading, but I can't fathom spending $300 for the same 6 cores. Was looking at the 5800, but not at $450. Pricing is a little out of alignment, imo. Guess I'll stick with my original plan of waiting until the socket change and DDR5.

thats just 6 cores. i dont trust game developers coding for 8 core next gen games to get those games running well at 6 cores even if they have higher clocks and more cache.

Seems like slower than RTX3080 ? Checked Techpowerup for 4k benchmark of Gears 5 and Borderland 3 with the allegedly slowest 3080 (Zotac Trinity)
Also don't forget they promise a FPS uplift in games because of ZEN3 so you have to add those to the 3080 too as they will also get a uplift with those CPUs. So it seems the GPU stacks in somewhere between the 3070 and 3080 as expected. I wonder how RTX performance will be though and if they have any kind of DLSS competitor.

It's between a 3070 and 3080, from what they've shown. This explains why Nvidia canceled the 3070 Ti(full GA104) and went with 3070 16GB instead.

The GPU they showed off is not quite as powerful as the 2080ti.
It all depends on which GPU AMD was showing. But the one they showed, whichever it is, is definitely s step down from the 3080.
Pretty curious to see raytracing performance. Keeping my expectations low.

3700x is 8 cores bro, 3600x is 6 cores.

Looks like it will slot in between the 3070 and the 3080 then.
Pricing will 100% determine how well it does.

I am with you. I expected about $50 lower on each of those. WIth sales and such they will be good but I am not spending $300 on the 5600X. I might even go for the non X if it ever happens.

Great performance but with inflated prices.
AMD is finally beating Intel in everything it seems, games were the last stand.
