Digital Foundry is the Performance Review Top Tier But....

I don't mind them doing tests at 720/1080p as long as they show 1440p and 4k results and they did.

Using better cooling is the way they really skewed the numbers but the Intel chip is faster in games with all being equal, just not at the same margin shown in the videos. But playing these games at 1440p gives the same performance whilst one chip is cheaper, comes with a cooler bundled runs on much lower power and thermals, is more powerful overall and supports faster PCIe tech. 

It's obvious what chip people should buy but as said it's disappointing that they would heavily favour one brand in such a way.

Honest review would be:

We had to pay a lot more for the chip, put an expensive cooler to get a marginal improvement that isn't necessary to play any game at ultra setting 1440p or 4k.

Basically.... even though at 1440p there is small differnces.

But saying that a 10600k (265$) on avg is 5% faster than a 3300x (120$) cpu for gameing (real world)... doesnt sound as good.

That might make people question if they should spend 145$ extra on the intel cpu, or another 100-200$ on the intel motherboards.
(not to mention it doesnt even ship with a cooler, you have to buy your own aftermarket cooler for this cpu)

Instead the headline is "Intel i5-10600k - All you need for gaming".
