Agreed on all points. I probably won't be upgrading since I just got the 5900x and I'm suspecting the prices of DDR5 will be offensive, but if intel has a better product next build I'll jump ship to them.*snip*
I, for one will be getting an Alder Lake when it arrives (hopefully) this year. Along with whatever mid-range GPU they offer. But when I build a Primary system, its will be Ryzen for now. This is truly a dumpster fire.

Though this does have me wondering if the current supply chain will present DDR5 supply issues too. Intel might be able to produce enough chips for demand (or not ie: 9900k) but even if they can, if we have grossly insufficient DDR5 supply it's going to be another series of supply issues damaging the release of a new product, much like with GPUs or 5600x/5900x chips currently
