Intel Core i3-10300

If you fail to understand the point of 720p testing then you are simply stating your hardware ignorance every time you post complaining about it.

Every AMD fan boy was comparing 6700k/7700k to a 1700x at 4k and 1440p and saying its only 3 or 4% slower and what if you want to stream and play games and surf the net all at the same time???
Then they would add to the argument, " i will use this morherboard for 5 years....

Well the 1600/1700/1800 turned out to be cpu limited with the next generation of gpu's, and the motherboard is now useless.
Go figure the same z170 motherboard and a 6700k @4.6 will still push a 2080ti but the 1600x and 2700x will not.
Thank God the 3700x is on par finally.
You can't argue the facts.

But I will admit, the other 3% of people that did some type of editing used the extra cores.


Tell us how your machine runs at 1440p with a rtx3080 with a overclocked Ryzen1700 vs a overclocked 6700k......
I'll give you a hint 40% slower, and how about a 2080ti @ 1440p? About 20% slower . How is that first gen AMD motherboard running your 3700x upgrade??
Hint. ITS NOT!

6700k and 1700 were both about $350 at launch.

A 6700k to a $400 10700k requires a new motherboard and has much better performance and will be viable for years to come considering console are 8 core cpu's.

A 1700 to a $420 3900x will require a new mother board and be more than enough for years to come also.
Like i said the first Ryzen series was way overrated and was the lesser choice back then.

And you just continued with the same crap. No point in arguing. Comparing a CPU that costs twice as much, and also ignoring that the 1600x will only shine when the overall CPU utilization goes up, and that isn't happening yet. As I said, people bought a CPU that is almost twice as fast overall for the same price, they didn't compete 6700k vs 1600x, you have decided what "fanboys" said and then use straw arguments. Come back in 2 years and compare an old i5 vs the 1600x since they were the same price and tell me that the 90 percent faster 1600x is worse.
