Hello, the 1900x has a higher base speed of 3.8GHz compared with the 3.4GHz and 3.5GHz of the 1950x and 1920x. However, the OC speed of all three CPUs are the same at 4.0GHz.
1. As I recall, when I built a PC 10 years ago, I installed an app provided by the motherboard manufacturer. I just pressed a button on the screen and the motherboard automatically did the OC for me. Is it still the same? If I just drop the CPU into a motherboard, the 1900X runs faster than the 1950X?
2. Am I right that if I don't need more than 8 cores, it is better to get the 1900x?
3. The 1920X and 1950X have twice the cache than the 1900X. How does it affect the performance of computationally intensive applications when: a) The three chips run at the base frequency. b) All three chips run at the top frequency of 4GHz?
