So, other than saving $10 off your YEARLY bill for power consumption
How is this CPU worth purchasing?
Do you overclock it to be as fast as the FX 8350 and cool it down easier?
How exactly is this as competitive as a G4560 priced at only $65 for gaming, where single/duo core performance is master.

How is Ryzen being competitive? What tricks do they have to improve gaming experience when the games will not utilize the cores?
I can see Ryzen being extremely useful for mobile / laptops and micro builds with low power demand. But, I don't see how this is a big increase.
Someone educate me on why these numbers(Ryzen 1400) are better for entry-level gaming builds?
