this guy doesn't look like a gamer

i was under the impression that was only if you are recording and playing at the same time and you are some autistic let's play youtuber

Yep, and that's where Ryzen 8C/16T comes in. Fuck Intel for exorbitant prices. They should have released 6C/12T on consumer i7 two years ago.

I won't upgrade from i5 in another 5 years. I'm no gaymur.

nigga it's tech dealz

He looks like a salesman.

No. He is correct about some games requiring 4 or more cores, but a 4 core processor isn't limited to the i7 line if I remember right.

He really means htt

does he also sell delidding tools?

Yes you need i7 for gayming, but if you're straight i5 is more than enough.

>Moar Cores (TM) are needed for gaming

Sounds like the age of AMD has begun.

Not really, 1 AMD core is half the power of an Intel one.

Pic related.

Good games work even on the most toaster tier hardware.

i7 is needed only if you have a gtx1080+

I've a 4 core i5 for years.

i7 for video recording, editing, rendering, and 3d modeling.

Not for videogames or mainstream users

No

Only retards play modern games, they're all trash.
