We won't get EPYC CPUs... it isn't our market.

From the conclusion:

For those with little time: at the high end with socketed x86 CPUs, AMD offers you up to 50 to 100% higher performance while offering a 40% lower price. Unless you go for the low end server CPUs, there is no contest: AMD offers much better performance for a much lower price than Intel, with more memory channels and over 2x the number of PCIe lanes. These are also PCIe 4.0 lanes. What if you want more than 2 TB of RAM in your dual socket server? The discount in favor of AMD just became 50%.

So has AMD done the unthinkable? Beaten Intel by such a large margin that there is no contest? For now, based on our preliminary testing, that is the case. The launch of AMD's second generation EPYC processors is nothing short of historic, beating the competition by a large margin in almost every metric: performance, performance per watt and performance per dollar.

Damn

My 8700k doesn't seem to go over 50% in anything but handbrake and virus scans but if one of you guys wants to try one of these i'll totally watch your thread

Wholesale pricing of cores.
AMD is Costco of CPUs

It's better priced compared to intel counterpart.
