Saying it's the chip for gamers doesn't mean it's the fastest gaming chip, just that it's the best balance for gaming. At least that's how I interpreted it.
Just wait on benchies...

12-CORE GAMING CPU
Fair play.
I'm still willing to bet the 3800x is faster in games. She definitely gave that impression. I mean im kind of hoping its the case anyway. Because if the 12 or 16 part is faster in gaming then I will feel obliged to buy it and I don't want to spend that much.

Lol. I don't have much disposable cash I'll give you that. But I don't care two jotts. It's all about net worth. I will get my payday one day. I'm sitting pretty enoughWell I have the funds so I’m hoping the 3900x is faster in games...so stop being selfish just because you’re poor![]()
Can't you satisfy the itch with a new case or case fans or summet?I'm desperate to upgrade.
But at the same time when I objectively look at what I've got most people would kill for a 2700 and Vega 64 rig.
It's all about the hobby aspect for me I think.
Decision made. Going to get B450 MSI Tomahawk and 16GB of 3200 DDR4 now and get the best Zen2 chip I can afford when they're available for order. Even B550 will be way more expensive than B450 and I won't benefit from PCI4.
if the clocks are higher , im willing to lean towards it being faster. intercore latency aside .

why the **** is there no more information on how much motherboards are going to be - given the apparent plethora of them that are going to be available surely there must be pricing floating about somewhere - and not from Billy Liar (adoredTV) or is it a super secret asus, gigabyte et al are keeping as a little surprise!?
I'm rusty on AMD stuff sorry; I imagine the best CPU to be the beefed up version of whatever is in the next PS5. So 8 cores, hyperthreaded?
Currently, besides lower frames some games feel treacle-ish in some scenes. Like Hitman. So I'm more tempted to upgrade 'some time soon'. Intel are supposed to the making a fast CPU next(?) but I will wait and see about that!
