- dragontamer 9y agoTrue, but it looks like these 2700X will come out under the 8700K's price point. So if a Ryzen7 2700X has better multithreaded (aka: compile times, blender rendering, etc. etc.) speeds than something spec'd ~$50 to ~$100 more than it, that's a winner by any stretch of the imagination. Single-core performance is most important in Javascript and Video Games. But most production tasks these days are multithreaded.
