Can't wait!! I expect the 11900K to be on par or slightly faster than the 5900X. Not bad considering it has 4 fewer threads...

A couple tests that are out already show it to be a solid 5-10% faster in games, just around where I was expecting it to land and enough to be the undisputed 8 core champion once again.

I'd rather buy a 11700K. Not paying that price for an 8 core.

Not a great MSRP, no, but if the i7 really doesn't OC all that well (as mentioned by a couple of the early reviewers like Gamers Nexus), it might be worth it for a really high end gaming build, since if you have the $1.5k or so for the graphics card, another $100 for a top of the line cpu shouldn't be a problem.
