Nope. Most gaming favour high clock speed over no. of cores. If you have productivity and gaming at the same time, then Ryzen make more sense.So the latest AMD processor is better on gaming performance?

Nah. It didn't kill Intel, but enough to make them sweat. So much multi core power at such a good price, power users will delight. Plus, in gaming, you usually hit the gpu hardest, so the small marginal loss from Ryzen can't usually be seen in gaming.I see. I saw all the hype about this latest processor and I thought it must be the Intel-killer of the decade.
In tests, higher clock rates give better maximum frame times..
But in Reality, GPU will be the bottleneck for most gaming systems thus more powerful GPU, better FPS
However games are getting more multi-threaded as well, just look at the likes of Battlefield 1.. Intel i5, 4 cores gets CPU bottlenecked easily while Ryzen's R5 6 core 12 threads eaisly distribute the load. Thats why, near future, better to go i7's 4 core 8 threads or better still, Ryzen R5 1600 or R7 1700 and OC it! much cheaper.
i.e These are extreme cases. i5 still works fine playing most games at 60 fps+

Rainbow Six Siege
Tomb Raider

GTA V

Very impressive Temperature for so many cores. I usually OC to 3.8GHz @ 1.3V. Temperature on full load with 280mm AIO plateau around 62°C with silent mode.
