7700x boosts 100Mhz higher than 7600x, and has 2Mbyte more l2 cache.

And just in case the "experts" here crawls out of their swamp holes with the default excuses from way back when AMD single thread performance was bad, just because a game uses 2-3 cores worth of CPU does not make it not single thread limited. IN the modern proliferation of cores where you get them by the dozens, you are NEVER limited my MP throughput but always by the ST performance on the limiting critical thread.

ANYTHING thats sold as new stock nowadays should do the job MORE than fine.

I still remember early lanparties, where you couldn't leave early because you could not just unplug your T connector from the Coax without messing up the line termination!

That was a fun aera.

Intel used to be 20 times the size of AMD, and fully focused on CPUs.

I mean, companies have become lazy in the past. Maybe nvidia will just getting used to selling AI chips for $20k to companies and become lazy on the consumer origented GPU side, etc.

I am pretty sure they already have something in the pipeline, its just that it can take half a decade from low level concept to customer sales...
