Considering AMD architecture is quite a bit different SMT vs HT they seem the same but are not the same. AMD is ahead of Intel in keeping this under control without performance hits, something Intel cannot manage. Look at Intel scrambling, that 28 core haha, cannot beat a real world 32 core at 4.0ghz on AIR.
As soon as AMD drops that beautiful 7nm tech they will be ahead of Intel in IPC and probably will be able to match clocks at 5ghz on 4 6 and oh wait 8 core main stream, something Intel has yet to release. Shoot their 6 core still isn't even affordable for the mainstream you know the people who live from paycheck to paycheck, I use to be there.
I can afford this 8086k and a new z370 or 390 when it drops but why when my 4790k can hit 4.8ghz on a corsair h70 a push pull 120mm fan small radiator I know I can get 5ghz if I went with the h100i because I can get 4.9ghz with a house fan blowing on my case. So, Intel has been able to do this for the last 4 generations but didn't want to, so this new isn't even new still 14nm still based on core and HT why they stole AMD engineers in both cpu and gpu arch design HAHAHAHAHAHA. Sure ddr4 on the new boards and m.2 but I built a Ryzen x370 for half the price I could an Intel with very similar performance. Ryzen 3000 could see a bump in cores and threads or just clocks, they really have options and I knew AMD would be dropping a 32 core on threadripper 2 I am shocked they didn't for ripper 1.
