Maybe we will get some early benchmarks!

Will Intel win me back from AMD? Time will tell.

Quad Channel... And a CPU with better single and multi-threaded performance over my Ryzen 9 would be great.

Yea it will be interesting for sure. Personally I am waiting for Raptor Lake vs Zen 4 but realistically, I will probably upgrade my CPU more so around the RTX 5000/6000 series than anytime soon. The annoying thing is Zen 4 is supposed to be DDR5 and PCI-E 4.0 while Intel is going full DDR5 and PCI-E 5.0. As a platform, I'd like to have both instead of just one but performance of the CPUs will matter most at the end of the day.
