so add up a third party cooler with the price...........burning hole in the pocket
They just matched Intel because its not like consumers have other options.
Agreed, better performance but at a higher price as well.
They won't be in consideration if not for supply issues of 3300X & 3600, both are better than that i3 & i5. Don't forget that B460 doesn't use RAM over 2666 or 2933MHz whereas 3200MHz RAMs are cheap relatively these days & easily works with Ryzen.
I'm not talking about Zen3. Zen3's price is same as Intel's 10th gen competition, top ones.
Yes, lack of cheaper R5 & R7 hurts. But if prices go back of normal, R5 3600 will still be the better value for money. I doubt paying $50-70 extra even for 5600 for 10-15% performance uplift is something than many budget buyers will easily pay.
Damn same case here. Are you also planning to buy a GPU? I need to do an entire build and now I am thinking to just pick up a console instead. All this waiting and speculation along with limited stocks and scalpers is getting incredibly frustrating.
Why would you want integrated graphics on a TOTL consumer chip series explicitly marketed as gaming CPUs?
Perhaps you should keep an old video card around. Plus if you use your system for work, I am guessing that you don't overclock or otherwise tune your system beyond standard operating specs. In which case the GPU dying is less likely than your hard drive (assuming spinning rust) getting corrupted.
I doubt the calculation will be so direct when it comes to INR. It will be near to 30k. May be more. For 5800X, I feel the price is on the higher side.
feeling same as my 955 BE is also not underpowered for daily task with 16gb ram and a ssd....
I'll upgrade my CPU/Mobo and RAM but will buy a GPU sometime later (I use my PC mostly for office work and only get free time during weekend). For me, 5500 would be a great choice if it matches 3600 performance with better single core performance. Lets hope for the best and see how it goes
