Because unless he's doing something like 240hz 1080p gaming, difference can hardly be felt.

 

Also cheaper, better value and upgrade path

I totally agree with you, sometimes though its even less than that. Sometimes it only like a 5-10 fps difference.

Honestly if the Ryzen x 3x00 series's leaks are true then it is going to destroy Intel for how much they cost.
