I only do gaming on my computer, so I'd rather have Intel's giveaway of an 8700K than AMD's giveaway of a 1950X. Threadripper would be such a waste for my use case.<br>Sorry AMD. I appreciate the shade, though! (also I didn't get one of the 8086's anyway 🤷‍♂️),(reply>), Because he could sell it and get an 8700k and have extra cash to spend on a motherboard to come with it,(reply>), halorocker2<br>Nobody is saying CPUs are just for gaming, the OP said that all he will be doing on it is gaming. So why would he intentionally get a worse CPU for that use case?,(reply>), Florian Oprescu I'm glad you feel that way. You represent a wonderful person.  I'm sure many people would love to be just like you!  I also appreciate that you took no time to educate me on why I'm particularly "stupid" on this subject.  Well, I just thought you fit right into the group of people I was talking about in my comment above.  Feel free to educate me buddy! ;),(reply>), halorocker2 is just plain stupid and uneducated,(reply>), Never understood why people just think processors are ONLY for gaming, or how they decided that despite having 10 less FPS you can't game on ryzen? The gaming community can be so amazing at times and, so ridiculously cancerous at the same time...
