For consumers what are the important factors to consider when making your decision?

While in the past 10 years AMD had been playing catchup with Intel regarding the gaming CPU market, Intel's undisputed lead as the best processor for gaming has come to a halt these past few years.  The situation radically changed when AMD released its Ryzen CPU line, which gave so much performance for the price making it more difficult for Intel to keep its monopoly and domination for gamers.  Having said that, many people have been used to hearing for years if you are looking for maximum performance and price is not an issue, Intel's CPU's are still perform really good at the single core benchmarks.  However the release in 2019 of the AMD Ryzen 9 3950X, this redefined what a CPU under $800 can do in multitasking, gaming, and content creation and Intel could not really touch that yet.  And with the Ryzen 9 3900X being less than $500 USD it makes you wonder what Intel is going to do about it?  The Ryzen 9  is a beast thats made Intel now having to come up with something comparable or better.  Lets also not forget that consumers are realizing they no longer need to buy a more expensive Intel CPU and motherboard. Now we have Intel's 11th Gen Processors coming out for 2021 which means that you can start getting deals on the 10th Gen Intel CPU's as they get replaced.
