It's looking like 4.3-4.4GHZ all core clocks.

No bundles yet lol.

No one knows because 3800X has no reviews.
No, unless you believe it will overclock completely differently to the 3700X or 3900X.

Anandtech state that power figures are correct. 65w CPUs limited to 88w power draw, and 105w CPUs at 142w. That is the set PPT figures.
Amusingly, they turned PBO on and had identical results as stock, ostensibly because of non-final BIOS not actually allowing PPT (and other limits) to be dynamic.
Edit: what I did find odd was that IF/uncore power draw was reducing as more cores were loaded; single core at full load was around 15w through the core, plus 23w IF/uncore.

Only seen HWU unboxed so far and it was generally lower. It is still fine, but even being wary I was expecting a bit more.

3700x and 3900x are identical in games. So I suspect the 3800x will be the gaming CPU to get. But according to hardware unboxed Intel is still king.
such a shame, been waiting on this, and now seems borderline pointless, for me anyway. Runs hot and little to no overclocking headroom coupled with ridiculous motherboard prices negating any price benefit on the cpu's.
Of course if multi-thread performance was important to me then I would be all over the 3900x.

yep i have done the same

Ouch at the Asus CHVIII cost.
I think there is an error our end or an error at the competitor, I have checked in our system and our cost is above the competitors by quite some distance, it is also odd how said competitor has launched all Asrock with a discount, so seems they maybe made an error, or we have the wrong cost, but our cost us a UK supplier so no mix up between USD and GBP.
Its a fantastic board and said competitor are below our cost, so yep go buy them elsewhere because if an error and if honoured you just saved around £100.
If its an error our side we will find out later tomorrow after I speak with Asrock and distributor.....

3900X stomps all over the 9900K, uses less power and is close enough in gaming to not matter.

3800x ordered.

All the reviews using the stock coolers(I think?) would expect a fair bit of heat.
Don't need to buy an x570 mobo unless you need 8 USB 3_2 or pcie gen 4
No hardware unboxed said AMD was now king, until Intel drop the prices, watch the video till the end
Yeh, they seem to have a massive discount applied.
