The prices look pretty reasonable for what they offer.
However, I doubt the average PC gaming consumer would buy them.

They will probably be preferred by people who are rendering a lot or performing CPU-intensive tasks in general.
Looks high priced just like I thought it would be.
Be careful or you might get sarge'd

The prices were leaked from in thailand. The prices other than Thai Bhat should be taken with a pinch of salt.

I highly doubt the 7800X will be £344 in the UK, closer to £500-£600 more like.
Should I get a 6-core Skylake-X or a 6-core Coffeelake? Or go with threadripper?

Wow AMD is still going to lead them rather strongly.

Oh Intel...

Ugh cant they lower the top chips by $400?
Fuck there's also a huge power draw coming from these things - TDP on a 7700k is 91w.
Will the 7800x&$7820x viable for gaming?

TDP =/= power draw

It'll probably be just like the 6850k/6800k.

I'm a little confused as to why everything (officially) supports DDR4-2666, while the 7800x supports only DDR4-2400.

It's technically a measure of heat output, but it has a direct relationship with power consumption.
probably going to buy the 7800x since the new MSI motherboards look so good lmao
