I think that $300 by that point becomes more like a value of $50 or so, its still valuable, its better than nothing, but if at present the 7600x and 13600k have the same gaming performance, but the 13600k is faster in multithreaded apps and costs the same as the 7600x, there is very little current incentive to go for the 7600x. Yeah the 7600x is probably going to be much more power efficient, but I don't see that as a too big of an issue for most people. Maybe for office computers that need that extra power efficiency, but gamers aren't going to mind at all!

Office users won't be using any K-series enthusiast chips, nor AMD 'X' chips for that matter. Office desktop users will be lucky to have a 12400 / 13400. 'Power' users will have laptops. Some specialized folks (engineers, content creators in the workspace) might have a workstation class system, but that's a small fraction of a single percent, and is as likely to be a Mac as a PC.
