IDK, Ryzen already starting price cuts. 1600x is already below 200 USD, and that was the price of the regular 1600 until recent.
/e Coffee lake will be better, but Ryzen will continue to win in price/performance ratio.

Except when they had to sell so cheap they were doing it at a literal loss with fx because of their sheer size meant they were giving us a lot of silicon wafer on each cpu. Even if prices go as low as fx at their lowest AMD will be better off since ryzen isnt as big as fatdozer.

Source on selling chips for a loss?
Fyi
R n d calculation isn't completely accurate considering write offs
