Price
No bundled cooler

Fairly expensive
Intel still has the edge for gaming

Your purchasing choices need to be based on the budget you are willing to spend and, of course the workloads that you have. I don't think the 5900X and 5950X will be extremely popular for the generic public (and don't get me wrong here as these are AWESOM...
