I don't know dude, maybe Ryzen 5 will be more focused into gaming, who knows?
I mean i7's and R7's are supposed to be for work pcs (streaming, servers, rendering)
gamers do not need an i7 by any means, because if you're investing as hard as an i7 you might as well redirect that money into a better gpu that will run at righer resolutions, that will lower the cpu needs.
Therefore R5 MIGHT be gaming focused.
Yes but it's only 15$ less than same clock speed i5s. Hardly game changing not like the hype. Well see for sure when benchmarks come out

Ryzen 5 1500x - 4/8 - 3.5 ghz - $189
i5 7500 - 4/4 - 3.4 ghz - $205
So on paper it looks better but if ryzen 7 benchmarks are anything to go off their single core performance still lags behind intel, so that i5 is probably 10-15% faster for only $15 more. We will have to wait an see I guess. I don't give a rat's ass about hyperthreading on a gaming rig.
I think the only thing that might save it is overlocking since the i5-7600k is ridiculously overpriced and doesn't include a cooler, you're looking at around $265 for that, while if the 1500x can oc out of the box on stock cooler that would be a massive savings if it runs stable at let's say 4.5 ghz + and sees good performance gains from that.
What I really want is a quad core, 3.5ghz processor for under $150 but I guess that's never happening now. That's what I hoped ryzen would be. I'd sacrifice ~10% performance for $50 or a 25% price cut sure.
