AMD Ryzen will use noticably less power than Intel's Kaby Lake lineup because of the lower TDP (95W for 1800(X)). Compare that to the TDP of the Intel Core i7 6900K which has a TDP of 140W. I seriously doubt the Ryzens will get hot. The Core i7 7700K has a TDP of 91W, while Ryzen 1700 has a TDP of 65W. AMD uses less power in every way, and according to AMD's benchmarks, Ryzen is also faster.

Intel propaganda at its finest Ї\_(ツ)_/Ї

Jokes aside, some people will just assume things sometimes just because they saw a video saying that AMD is automatically hotter. It will take some time for them to sink in the truth, but we'll see how everything turns out once 3rd-party reviews are posted on March 3rd.
