Well, now that we have an idea of what to expect from Zen4, it will be interesting to see what Intel has to say about Raptor Lake.

About the presentation from AMD, which I didn't watch, I'd say that AMD is in a good position in the high end market and both the 7950X and 7900X will probably do well against the 13900K, even if they can go all the way up to 230W.

I'm not so sure about the 7700X and the 7600X, which I think will have the worst time since Intel will have lots of alternatives with lower prices, and that's before taking the platform cost into account.

Thr RDNA3 bit was laughable.

One thing I want to say, is an excerpt from a Videocardz article from yesterday: "There is no 7800X SKU for now, but it may appear later with 3D V-Cache."

Could AMD actually do that? When the 5800X3D came out, it was compared a lot with the regular 5800X and put in shame for its lower clocks, despite the big improvements in gaming. So, could have AMD decide to skip all the negative part and skip the 7800X and go straight to the 7800X3D? At the very least, that would explain why the 7700X is there.
