How about the 1600/1600x vs the 7600K :sas2:

Higher core and much higher thread count for the 1600...

Which is laughable since the cards performance is about the same:mjlol:

But you do save somewhere between 3 - 7 dollars on price if you go 1600 so their is that :mjlol:

Most games are optimized for single/dual core performance, and since Intel dies have higher clock rate they perform better in single core performance. This will change in a few years when zen 2 is released on next gen consoles and videogame makers optimize games for high threaded usage.

a ryzen 1600 and 1700 is still way more future proof than a 6900 or 7600 intel CPU

Right, just like DX12 was going to change gaming and almost no one really uses DX12 in their games...

:leostare:

It took years before DX11 took off like it will for DX12

Many devs were still using DX9 before 11 took over

And games are starting to use and favor more threads
