Should the AMD vs Intel be updated now that PCSpecialist are offering some of the 12th gen Intel CPUs? It has suddenly got more complicated.

I personally still advise AMD whose refresh of the 5000 series is due early in the new year, and I reckon they'll blow intel out the water again, as there already seem to be problems with 12th gen intel

Personally agree with @Martinr36 but nevertheless, we should definitely update that thread to be more current. it's more of a neck and neck battle again which is really good to see no matter where personal allegiance lies.
