So you're right...i guess the ridiculous price for a 9900 set up is totally worth maybe 5% performance in real games, as is factually documented online if one cares to look.

One reviewer put it succinctly; the 9900k is worth it, if cost is no object. And that's not a comment on you or how you choose to spend...it's a comment on the reality that most people can't afford that kind of cost when the benefit is on the order of 5%.
