I can't wait to see the differences between the 3700X and 3800X, hopefully the 3800X will overclock better, I'm looking forward to that one.

For gamers, not sure the 3900x will be any better than its 8c/16t counterparts. More cores, more heat, lower throttling threshold. Threadripper wasnt very good at gaming and had a software game mode that disabled some of its cores while gaming. The 3900x may be a kick ass chip in a lot of other applications, just not sure if gaming will be one of them.

Has there been any word on when the press/reviewers nda ends? Will it be on July 7'th, or at some point prior to the actual launch?

So far so good. I'm not sure what to buy, anything from 3600 to 3700x suits my needs.

that 3700x look amazing to me. If I was willing to make new pc right now in the next few months that is what I would build it around.

For people building a new computer PCI-E 4 gonna be a big deal specially since there will be PCI-E 4 nvme drive available day one. In fact the amount of support AMD is getting for 3rd party manufacturers for Zen 2 is almost surprising. They certainly seems to believe Zen 2 gonna be a big deal.

Anyone else a little confused that there's a 12 core model, but not a 16? Not that it matters, 12 is still crazy for AM4. Maybe they'll do a 16 core later. Also, how has nobody mentioned the PCIe lanes? Seriously, 40 lanes, and nobody even bats an eye? That's getting close to X299, except this is PCIe 4.0, so that means there's actually more available bandwidth.
The 35MB L2 for a 6-core CPU is another major surprise to me. I hope to see a cache of that size carry over to the APUs.
As for the prices, damn, you people are picky. Even compared to Threadripper, I was actually thinking these prices were weirdly low.
I feel sorry for you if you think a handful of extra FPS in games is the only metric that makes a CPU's rank better than everything else. Even when comparing to Intel's own product lineup, that logic is flawed.

standard butthurt intel fanboys are crying on reddit about these not being 5Ghz.
you don't need to run 5Ghz if you can beat it at 4.5!

Amd did the whole 5ghz thing and lost badly. SO why do it again. They are very very competive at 4.5ghz thats good enough for me. Keeping intel in check is something everyone should be happy about. Going to be a very interesting rest of 2019. Anyone on lga1151 are seriously looking at these new processors. I am not a fan boy i have owned both systems. Which ever ones gives me best bang for the buck at the time of my upgrade gets my money. Its about time for navi to start putting a hurting on nvidia.

Looking nice, esp that ryze n9 one, im curious how much more you get outta one , they beat intel at 4.5, but they might even overclock much further with some nifty cooling 😉

intel took that speed crown by failing to incorporate security in its processors, their ipc decreases every time you blink.
