Nowadays, AMD compete in the low en with Intel's i3 processors. If thanks to Zen they can compete in the mid range against Intel's i5, I'd say that Zen/AMD have done a great job.

I know. It's just that I want more bang for buck in the 7 range, especially since I already own an i5, upgrading to a slightly better version of an i5 on AMD's side doesn't sound like a great investment to me, not unless it's a lot cheaper and does a lot more, which is why I'd rather they target the 7's, which would give me a cheaper alternative to an AMD version of an i7.

I do wish AMD would go for the high end a bit more though.

They lack the money for that.

Hopefully Zen delivers and the market responds well to their new chips, bringing enough money to AMD so that they can spend more on R&D.
