Intel just being anti-competitive intel. In no small part thanks to AMD fucking up hardcore.

This message has been sent from a Core i7 based laptop :(

How long were you expecting a company with 1/10th the R&D and size of intel to stick it to them on the high end?

Long

The gap is just much bigger than it was post Core2.

Indeed there is... There was hardly a gap back then when it came to gaming.

If we look up gaming benchmarks for something like Phenom X4 965 or similar Deneb based chip vs i7 920 or similar, AMD was noticably cheaper and sometimes faster for gaming. 

The PII 965 BE in my desktop PC certainly agrees with you.
