While these discounts fix one part of their greed, it doesn't yet fix the second part which is the motherboard prices. What AMD should have done is released two configurations, B650 and X670 with the difference being PCI-E Gen 5. Instead they went full retard mode and released 4 different motherboard configs: B650, B650E, X670, X670E while Intel had their Z690 motherboards costing only $200 vs AMD's $500 X670E. So high end buyers will just get Raptor Lake cause it's the fastest while value buyers will stick with AM4 cause Gen 5 is restricted to E boards and why upgrade to get only 5% faster gaming performance vs 5800X3D while keeping the same pci-e gen? |
