Cheaper, less power, it will be air cooled and still more powerful than the 5600x. May be fine.

AMD really needs to release the non-X versions, with lower prices, to be able to fight Intel.

AMD pride needs to go down a notch, they MUST drop prices to compete with 13600K and soon 13400K.
Outside AM5 longevity, I don't see any advantage to buy a zen4 CPU outside 7950X, those 3D parts needs to be very well oiled...

I'm glad to hear this. Nowadays, I'm more interested in my gaming rig being compact and efficient rather than squeezing more performance out of my chips. I would even consider under-volting this.
However... considering the price of the 7700X, I have a feeling I will not be getting a 7700. At this point, it's pretty predictable how much a 13400 or 13500 will cost, and for my purposes, they will most likely be a better deal than a 7700. Of course, this also depends on how they compare to a 5700X, which right now is a good price.

Rumours about Ryzen 7700 (no X) already? Sales must indeed suck. God forbid them to lower prices so they could sell!

What's really killing me atm is the lack of USB4 on the new AMD mobos. If I'm paying that much for new hardware I want to be future proofed too.
Edit: And that are affordable. Only AM5 mobos w/ USB4 are $400+ (US)
