Yeah, If they can hit 4.4 or 4.5ghz in an all core overclocks at under 1.4 volts they might be interesting though. If I start to hear about these doing this consistently I might change my view on them a bit. The 3700x I had through here couldn't even do 4.2 stable at 1.4v with LLC cranked up to the point of almost no v droop.Yeah, looks like it's only ~4% faster at most in heavily threaded loads. Kinda disappointing, does make the existence of the 3800X kind of questionable.
Yeah and I wouldn't upgrade from an i7 2600k to a 6700k either. The difference is good but I don't think it warrants an upgrade. The Ryzen 9 3900x is a good upgrade though as far as multicore stuff goes. If I'm going to upgrade I want more than just an ipc increase I want more cores and or threads too. That's me though.Honestly, the 8 cores isnt the part that matters is the difference between the 2.
It's like upgrading from an I7 2600 to an I7 6700k. The cores might be the same, but the single-threaded performance is greatly improved.
The 3700x is a big improvement from the 2700x all around. Worth upgrading? Not unless you have a high refresh monitor.
You must be realizing this after you bought a 9400f instead of the 2600 or 2600x.I want more cores and or threads too
I have the Ryzen 5 3600. I used the 9400f as a temp CPU with an extra motherboard I had lying around until I got the Ryzen CPU and then I sent it back and I've since sold the b360 board for $40. I only had it because I was working on another build project but last minute canceled it. The intel build was for my uncle who swears by intel. I got him a different system already though. And it is intel. Got him a little bit older generation i3. He only uses the pc for web browsing and very light gaming only.You must be realizing this after you bought a 9400f instead of the 2600 or 2600x.

Make a new thread for that so you get a more specific answer to your usage case.Maybe slightly off topic, but what are your thoughts on the 3800X vs the 3700X? Use would be Adobe Lightroom and some 1440p 60Hz gaming.
