yes 300 3700x and 90 3800x. They received the 300 3700x and then another shipment of 100 which i believe was due Friday but nothing in terms of 3800x.

That's really annoying - I've just gone off on holiday and paid for Saturday delivery so thsg I'd have it on my 1st day back... Presumably they'll refund Saturday delivery if there's no stock this week?

I have 2 packs of CMW32GX4M2C3466C16 (i.e. 4x 16GB 3466Mhz C16 Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro) paired with a Gigabyte x570 Master and a 3900x.

I must admit, getting them to work at decent speeds has been the most difficult part of the build by a significant amount. Although they're rated for 3466, I can't get the system to boot at anything above 3000Mhz with all 4 DIMMs filled. I may be able to push this slightly further, or a BIOS update might help a bit, but having read a few other forums it seems that this is a fairly common as they are Dual Rank to reach 16GB capacity per stick.

I've seen this described as the "worst possible case", and although 3000Mhz seems like it might be as fast as it'll go, 64GB does seem to work fine. I'll spend a bit of time trying to tighten up the timings, which might offer some improvements, but the key take away seems to be that you need to decide between capacity and speed when it comes to RAM configurations.

People still use Prime 95? Zomg is your PC 8 hours prime stable? If not it's not stable zomgs lolz etc. It's an unnecessarily aggressive test that is never replicated with gaming or normal home usage.

Yeah that has just made me go from a 3900X initailly to a 3700X and now going to cancel that and get the 3600.

I can have 2 of the 3600 which is 12 cores 24threads for a little over the price of a 3700X and very little gain in gaming performance.

3600 was consistently 10% behind the 3900X at under half the price. Definitely put a smile on my face as I'll be going the 3600 5700XT route.

Have a look at this video, best one I've seen so far.

May have slowed the CPU down though using a 5700 but it's a good video none the less.

Interesting. There’s really not much in it gaming wise, you could pick any of them and have a near identical gaming experience.
