i was waiting the whole week to see the benchmarks and decide if i should finally upgrade my 8350 for a better amd for gaming purposes, now i come to the conclusion that intel 7700k is better and cheaper when it comes to gaming.
atleast the price dropped :/

Most of the early benchmarks show the i7-7700K still outperforms the early Ryzen CPU/board combos right now... at gaming. Most reviewers suggest the Intel is still best for pure gaming. But I suspect that to change a bit as the platform matures. I'm waiting for that to happen before spending that kind of money, myself.

I'm sleeping on it. By summer when I awake, the ground will be covered with bright LEDs and glistening like a rainbow. "Ding-dong, which one is dead." I will find myself reaching the far edges of the universe in less than a giga-light year. As your thoughts and my thoughts converse in telepathic wave conversation.
"Ryzen is O.K., i7-7700 is a bit faster. Last years i7's were cooler, etc. etc.
Oh, humm, I'm safe to say my Apple 2c mouse doesn't right click and my cat still has a place to get warm.. .on top of my big tube monitor. After waiting 8 months for Vega to appear, my thoughts on AMD is, they're stringing the carrot out on us.. . because dialogue is all that they have. Aye, throw another floppy on the barbe, will you, mate?
