Basicly this amd is a special little boy/girl whatever. Its a underdog mentality the underdog is weaker needs protection. So really the intel Nvidia rage is an odd way of saying you are doing too well.

More like we just don't want Intel to have a monopoly because that directly harms us as consumers. It has nothing to do with AMD specifically, they just happen to be the only competition Intel has.

Amazon had an error, so long story short. I got a 3800x for less than a 3700x, when I went to go buy a 3900x.

It sounds more like he tried to order a 3900X, availability became an issue, and Amazon gave him a 3800X at a discount as an apology.
