AMD Zen 2 (Ryzen 3000) - *** NO COMPETITOR HINTING ***

i'm back and up and running the 3900x is a monster cpu no other word for it ran cinebench r20 and hit 7354 points, i noticed my cpu max speed is around 4.25ghz and i can hit that on all 12 cores thanks to pbo under watercooling as well the max temp i've seen is 67 degrees so far.

(to be clear i havent done any manual overclcoking just yet)

just fired up a few games and compared to my oc 7900x the 3900x from amd seems to deliver smoother frame rates and the average is around 5-10fps more in most case i tested so far compared to my old x299 build, the crosshair viii formula is a beutiful motherboard and when it's added into the loop it looks so nice, well worth the £599 it commands
 
Hi there

I’ve just come of the phone with AMD who have done some investigating and though it’s unknown as to why the following is expected to now be with us tomorrow:
300x 3700X which covers all pre orders and leaves some spare.
90x 3800X which again covers all pre orders and leaves some spare

Then on Friday we shall get:
100x 3700X
90x 3800X

I’ve also asked for an update on more 3900X so will update as I find out and don’t call OcUK as it is me who knows the facts and I post them on here as I find out so you hear it from the horses mouth as to speak.
 
Quick question im trying to follow the thread best i can but with work theres and a lot of posting in here theres normally 20 pages to read when i get back to it lol

A quick glimpse i have seen theres bios issue for the msis X470 and b450s is this true ? I was gonna try and save my self £100 and buy last years motherboard but seems to be issue with the bios being to small ??

I think the issue might be that you need a gen 2 AMD CPU in a mobo to flash to the latest BIOS, then Gen 3/Zen2 will work.

Thank you for the update @Gibbo. I look forward to my order being fulfilled tomorrow :)

Great news is there anyway to either get next day delivery or a Saturday Delivery to N.Ireland? Stupid Bank Holiday here on Friday :mad:

I did manage to get it from a competitor before. I don't mind paying a bit extra.

so whens the next 3900X due in ? just gonna go full throttle
 
These MSI issues are scaring me. I bought x570 Pro Carbon for my 3700x.

I've had z77 Sabertooth from ASUS and it was a fantastic board that served me well over the last 7 years. Maybe I should stick with ASUS? Is Strix-F a good board, just £10 compared to Pro Carbon. Hard to make a good decision since reviews for motherboards are slow to come out.
