(Also I'm not sure why they're still testing Crysis 3, The Witcher 3 and older titles when people are buying these very expensive CPU's to play modern games).

I love these guys, but that's a serious miss-step. 

Probably sponsored by Intel or such.
This type happends basically everywhere, intel owns the media.

You have to question why pc guys are benchmarking these things at 1080p or 720p as well.

You should be giveing people a honest representation of real world performance.
Now one buys a Geforce 2080ti to game at 720p or 1080p.

The only reason they dont show the 1440p or 2160p (4k) results, is because the differnce in CPU performance in gameing go away at that point.
Ei. the graphics card becomes the bottleneck.

Naturally the reviewers cant just say "their both fine, they can both feed the gpu all it needs, for gameing".
So they instead show you "non real world performance" (ei. games running a way no one with that GPU would use it), so they can sell people something they don't even need.  Here is a new CPU, its from Intel! buy it!


Truth of the matter is.... for most people your better off just buying a cheaper CPU, and spending most of your budget on the GPU.
The 10900k is for people that are willing to pay 500$ extra for like 5-10 fps more at 1440p/4k, for games that are already above playable levels in fps.

Intel motherboards are stupid expensive too, and the 10900k needs a water cooling unit? cool....
Compaired to to a cheap mobo amd ryzen + cpu running its stock cooler.

Its not quite apples to apples.
