    One time someone asked in this forum how much a certain i7 was worth. I said it's worth x (not sure how much) because Ryzen was selling second hand for y (again, not sure how much thinking about it now).

     

    They got like.. offended or something I compared an i7 to Ryzen, like "what does Ryzen have to do with it!"

     

    While there are people who will just buy an i7 'cuz i7', there are also value consumers who pick the best performing chip for a certain price.

    People who want a drop in upgrade are the ones paying €180 for an I7 4790K rn

    For stability & less maintenance reasons last time i talked to someone on the forum about it.
