I can't believe. AMD will shred i9-9820X on peaces.
AMD 12C/24T for 499$ vs Intel 10C/10T for 999$...
I would not hurry to upgrade on AMD, position on market could turn for 2-3 months.
If Apple decide to install AMD CPU and GPU in their computers then you know how situation is serious.
They not jump just like that and have better information of us.
And for sure Apple is someone who think on longer period, not something to outperform their computers just like that for year.
It's good because older platform still work great for gaming.
I'm sorry because EVGA not made some nice X570 Classified motherboard.
Some rumors say that Intel successor, 10th gen is only 18% faster then Skylake cores.
Skylake cores are what people advice me to buy, i7-6700K/i7-7700K/i7-8700K.. all are same.
Difference is in names only and because Intel decide to launch new motherboards. We didn't see nothing new.
In same situation AMD would offer nothing, they would still sell i7-6700K or eventually i7-8700K with more cores... that's it.
People would use same motherboards and old processors. This launch of i9-9900K is to delay humiliation, not avoid, to delay.
Intel still didn't show up with rumors... Dear customers,....bla bla bla we prepare new processor, 10th Gen, faster 50% then Skylake....
No, they don't have.
If Intel continue to struggle AMD will show up and with DDR5 first.
Now you see that AMD is not user friendly like everyone thought. 1 year was enough to show up with statement We don't want to be budget option any more and Crosshair VIII hero cost double then Crosshair VII Hero.
You remember that Crosshair series was cheaper then Intel mainstream. Now AMD didn't increase price 50$, didn't offer same price as Maximus Z390, not even as Rampage VI Apex, they want to ask more for Crosshair VIII Extreme then for Rampage Extreme, at once.
