The issue with ryzen specifically in games is not the adoption of multi cores in games, but the lower IPC. If Ryzen had a higher IPC than kaby lake it would have performed better in games regardless...

That's a start but not a big enough reason to upgrade yet from 4/8. Will check out what games use them and any future games coming up soon.

Just because you may have 6 cores doesn't mean the game will use them. Do you know of any current games that will? It will take a long time for 6 cores or more to become the norm and for game...

Because someone might currently have a Socket 1151 system with an i3/i5 and can get away with an upgrade for $300 versus the $600-700 that the new CPUs and mobos will cost them?

What's your setup? Are you getting those temps on a stock CPU or you have it OC'd?

I need a 12yr old to answer this.
Why has the 7700k been selling below the "wholesale" price since launch? BTW it's $339 for 1000 listed on Intel site
is it because it's a stopgap cpu?

You have to figure that up until now 4 core was main stream. New consoles have 8 core cpus. Ryzen and now Intel both have 6 core mainstream cpus and decent prices.
Previously there was not reason...
