News How I Overclocked the Ryzen 9 3900XT to World-Record Speeds

I would be interested in some R20 results under ln2.

As AMD said, the architecture has matured and these chips exist because it was now possible to get even better performance out of zen2.

Honestly, the majority of people shouldn't buy XT, but they do have a purpose.

It would also be interesting to see what the limits of ambient cooling are, has anyone managed to reach 5ghz without going to liquid?

I also don't care about OC records but was interested to hear an expert user's opinion on the quality of the 3900XT silicon. At $50 over the 3900X it's a fair offering. I don't expect price to scale absolutely linearly with performance. Those who've been criticizing AMD for releasing it have the picture wrong.
