Doubt it will be of any threat to AMD's current lineup. At the end of the day Rocket lake is still on (a very power hungry) 14nm process and need a decent cooler to get going. Performance I'm guessing will be largely the same judging from Intel's graphs - around 4% faster at 1080P for gaming and thats for cherry picked games/benchmarks :P For all other tasks.. like multi-thread apps forget about it, Intel are behind.
However if its in stock and at a reasonable price RL will sell out, thanks to people spending habits these days lol. But yeah a more competitive Intel should give AMD a kick in the shins.
