9900k vs new AMD CPU's 2019

[Billy85]

Hi guys,

When and how many new AMD CPU's will be launched this year and what are they likely to be spec wise?

I was hoping to build a pc a couple months ago but waited for CES hoping they would start selling the new CPU's straight away, however no sign......

My question is it worth waiting until June 2019 for AMD's new CPU or "CPUs" or should I just make an intel 9900k pc.

I was hoping and still am hoping for a 12 core CPU with the spec from Adoredtv the 3700x 12c/24t 4.2 - 5.0ghz cpu? Is this likely?

Also what are the key differences between using an Intel CPU vs AMD CPU if any?

the real question is, can you wait before you need to upgrade? if you can't then your question is answered


there will be a 12c24t part. re: clockspeeds...no one really knows. still engineering sample phase...

in what respect?

Is the 12c/24t part likley to be launched in june or more towards the end of the year, I personally think they just going to launch the 8c cpu in june and the rest later on maybe end of the year?

Key differences in respect of amd and intel cpu's - I was reffering to performance and compatibility of windows operating systems, as well as third party software in genral.

Furthermore, anyone ever had an AMD cpu go bad, as i've never has any issues with my intel systems to date.
