I'm so confused.
The i7 7740x on the user bench is scored 101%
The Amd 1800x scored 93%
And the 1700x scored 88%
The 7740x can be clocked to 5ghz
where as out of the box the 1700x is the same ghz as my i7 2600 which is 11 years old, the 1800x only has 0.2ghz more.
I know the 1700x/1800x has more cores but a year ago everyone had 'massive ones' for Ghz now it seems like no one cares. why?
I was hoping to improve games like world of warcraft since it's heavily cpu based but i feel like i won't notice the difference with the amd cpus at least...
(note i didn't really want to oc, even without boosting the i7 base is 4.5ghz which would be a big improvement over my 2600 3.4ghz)
