He's wrong(ish), there's no difference even with PBO from X470 to X570. Margin of error stuff:

For those bending over backwards for decent RAM.
1.9% increase from CL16 3000 to CL14 3200.
Grab some Micron CL15 3000 and you're good to go for much cheaper.

Depends on what "get the most out of" means really. Sure, if you want PCIe 4.0 for instance. But TechPowerUp's testing showed zero difference between X470 and X570 in a pure CPU performance sense, even with the 3900X.
Both was fine. I would run 2x16 though I think 3200mhz. Eff dropped with 4 dimms.
Yeh , i really want to order the 3700x but in some benches the 9900k is 20-30 frames ahead. Think I'm gonna wait for 3800x reviews and see how they go!
I'm not sure that's a problem. Buying a B450 now, and then an X570 in a year, is likely going to cost less than paying a Day Zero premium for a product that currently offers no tangible benefit.Just to through it in there as a consideration for those opting not to buy x570 if buying new) this decision could come back to bite when the next gen GPU's launch next year.

PBO removes the limits that differentiate a 3700X from a 3800X. The only possible difference is binning.If it was me and I was thnking of buying the 3700x I would go for the 3800x just to make sure your getting the best silicon as well as potentially higher sustained PBO speeds.
A bottomless pit of processing power that can't quite match a CPU with 66% of the cores max overclock in games. Yes it makes sense if you're a content creator/video editor but not for now if you have a PC primarily for gaming.But you literally are getting 3x the CPU, and in desktop terms a bottomless pit of processing power. Back in the 4770k days a system with that kind of processing power would have cost £20k? Probably more TBH.

Whilst you likely get better XFR2 performance out of the box with the 3800X, if your intention is to invalidate the warranty via PBO the you're better off on the cheaper of two otherwise identical products.
Agreed, though I don't see any other way that they could be different except for binning.You might be right. We need to see reviews of the 3800x which thus far seem non existent.
Seems to struggle a bit compared to the Intel architecture from a few years ago though. I reckon you'll get 100mhz more from the 3800X, maybe 4.3 all core boost for 5 mins.Yeah if you told me a few years ago that you could have this level of CPU and build it desktop I would have probably laughed. If you told me you could have this for desktop money, in an ITX format and power it from a 200watt PSU I would have thought you was mad.
£379 3800x
£479 3900x
Man that 3900x is some grunt for the money!
Good times , good times indeed !
I am currently on windows 7, will W10 offer anything of value to me in terms of gaming perf with all the scheduler stuff?
