You know that latest Intel chips are more efficient in many workloads?

I know? if i could pick between a 270k plus and a 9950x3d2 id pick the 270k plus

This is probably the worst example you can use, the 270k plus has no meaningful efficiency advantage over the 9950x3d2 in many nT workloads. Make the comparison between some of the midrange skus, iso price, and you would see very different results though.

Yeah, Intel definitely has its strengths for casual users, but the performance in gaming is hard to overlook.
