intel crap. they're already releasing a successor to krappy lake in 2H 2017. cuz Ryzen has them scared. another rebrand with a factory overclock probably.
better to wait for ryzen than buy one of these old intel chips. a ryzen chip will probably be better value at this price.

Wrong i7.
Try 50% of the cost of 6900k.

well i love my i5's, got a i5 760,2400s,2400,3570 and 4570...i also wanted a E5-2609 V2 but thought nah i have enough processors even a fx 6300 and a 8320 ...too much time spending money on cpu's but not enough time putting them to good use.

"In the UK we have a screenshot of a listing of Ryzen CPUs from trade seller Ingram Micro. These listed processors seem to have been taken down, but luckily VideoCardz took a snap. You can see the top end 4GHz AMD Ryzen 7 1800X was listed at GBP £365, the Ryzen 7 1700X at £283, and the Ryzen 7 1700 at £235. These are ex-VAT prices so you have to add 20 per cent, unfortunately. That makes the AMD Ryzen 7 1800X £438 by my calculations. In the listings WOF seems to mean 'without fan'.
you going to be spending £438 on their fastest processor (if the price is right when it finally releases) against an i7 7700k which is selling for £339.21? really?

we don't know which AMD chips will be equivalent to which intel's chips.
AMD compare the highest end ryzen chips with the broadwell e i7 6900k which is around £1k. but who knows until they've been released and benchmarked independently.
we don't know the pricing of all the SKUs. we don't really know anything at this point, except that intel are scared.
