He might of meant multi-threaded apps....and literally everything else you would use a computer for.

How is it better than the 3700x in that regard?...and literally everything else you would use a computer for.

Oh yeah it's not..
Well the same applied to the phenom.He didn't say it was better. The claim was it was only good for gaming... the truth is that it's good for everything else too. Maybe not the best, but still good.

At least when the AMD crowd used the "it's good enough" argument with Zen(+) it was cheaper than the Intel parts. Now the Intel crowd using the "It's good enough" argument have a price problem.
not as good as a $329 part in mult-thread workloads which is like 99% what you would use a computer for....and literally everything else you would use a computer for.

So 99% of the programs only use 1 core?I would totally disagree with that. 99% of the loads will not use all the threads that a modern 8C / 16T CPU has. Many would usually favor the CPU with the better performance per core.

No of course not however I would say 99% of applications on a desktop PC don't use 16 threads at 100% usage. Or even 8 threads at 100% CPU usage. If it does not the CPU with the better per thread performance can easily perform better even though it has less threads.
That depends heavily on how many "other" programs you have running. The more stuff you have running, the better it is to have more headroom.
Gaming on a "current" 4C at 5GHz can be way worse than on a current 8C at 4GHz if you have enough other stuff that bogs down your 4C.
IF that B350 gets a BIOS update, and IF that B350 has sufficient power delivery for a 3950x or 3900x (most don't)
Check the list:
For most B350's it would seem like anything above a 3800x is probably risky.
I love that my ITX B350 board can handle a stock 3950x and OC 3900X. It'll do just that come September.
When you read a book do you high-five yourself for finishing it? No, you read a book to go on a journey. Most people who play SP games are looking for that same vibe. Multiplayer gaming is for people who don't give a shit about stuff like that, they are in it for the adrenaline or occasionally the social aspects of it, constantly chatting with others online while all colluding or competing in some kind of online experience. I'd say there's room for both, but one is not inherently better than the other.
We've seen the split in gaming between, say, the Baseball fans (slower, more sedate) and the basketball fans (faster, action-on all the time). Not sure the industry has figured this out yet however, they seem to want us all to get on board the "JUST KEEP PLAYING THE SAME SHIT EVERY DAY ALL THE TIME! GIT GUD!" train.....personally, I say "Fuck That Shit, I'd rather read a book".
Depends on the game.I guess I thrive on competition. Single player games today seem more like watching a movie (ridiculous amount of linear'ness and cut-scenes) than playing a game.
Wow, I heard the exact same thing 14 years ago. Times change, but the arguments stay the same.I guess I thrive on competition. Single player games today seem more like watching a movie (ridiculous amount of linear'ness and cut-scenes) than playing a game.
Oh yeah in games looks like its got 10 fps with on 9700k but not in multi threaded workloads. Intel is hard purchase considering the cost of their products.
Wouldn't it depend on the resolution?Which is why you should have actually read the first post of mine you quoted. Reading is fundamental after all!
I specifically said its for my GAMING rig. Even the Tech Jesus and other large reviewers are recommending the 9700K over the 3700X for gaming.
Also in the US the 9700K can be found NIB for $329.00.

I disagree with the completely fake part. We have known for a long time that Intel plans to have a 10C / 20T mainstream CPU at the next generation. The other details may be fake but I expect the price of the 10C / 20T to be very close. And the 8C / 16T version should also be a $3XX CPU when this is released.
I want them all on max!...and game settings .

I do like the puzzle games. Played both Portals all the way through multiple times. Wish they would make a third.
Even abrokenfake clock is right twice a day.
This has to be fake because where is the new socket and chipset that these will require to run on ?

Try The Talos Principle from Croteam if you haven't. I really enjoyed it up there with Portal, cant wait for a second.
I'd recommend such open world masterpieces as Prey, Dying Light, many titles in the Far Cry series, (all of the ones I have played thus far except the first one are actually pretty damned good) the Stalker series is amazing too but kind of dated now.
And then there is the Fallout series which can be a bit campy with it's 50's era space age atomic setting, but is also fun.
Then there are some titles which are partly linear, partly open world that I have also enjoyed very much. The Deus Ex Reboots (HR followed by MD) are great. Heck the original from 20 years ago is awesome too, but talk about dated...
This thread is so off topic now because when discussing a huge lie that's obviously fake I think everyone with brain cells realized how dumb it is to shoot the shit about a product that never existed.
