Hahahaha. Oh you... ;)

Who has the highest ranked ryzen single core cinebench score here? Even you guys with your expensive 3900X struggle to keep up ;)

Looking forward to see if anyone comes along with a 3950X to smash past it :D

At worst stock I would imagine which for that chip is quite good. As it has faster boosting cores compared to the lower range CPU’s. You may even get lucky like I did and get a much better chip.

Been doing some more testing on my 3600. It can actually easily do 4500MHz all core, but it needs to much extra voltage vs all core 4400MHz that it is just not worth the extra heat and possible degradation. 4.4GHz all core at 1.275v eats OCCT for breakfast and is super stable. But 4.5GHz wants at least 1.375v to do the same. It actually runs fine at 1.325v to past short stress tests and cinebench, but after 20-30 minutes of OCCT I get 1 error show up, which is 1 too many.

Can’t really complain though, all core 4.4GHz that runs cooler than stock settings and more efficient as power usage is a little less provides a 10% boost over stock. 4.4GHz on Zen 2 is a lot better than my 4.7GHz OC on my Haswell due to the huge IPC difference, so nice upgrade for me :)

Once I get my new kit of RAM I may just key this 4.4GHz all core settings into BIOS and be done with my tweaking :D

Thanks for the info mate, it's the X370 Chipset I am not sure about being able to do overclocking as well as X570 boards. If I can get 4.4Ghz all core I will be very happy, especially being that the 1700 I am coming from hates anything above 3.85Ghz.

It is only going to get worse for Intel in the short term as well, €99 R5 2600, and £139 R7 2700's, not to mention the R5 3600 which is the sweet, sweet, sweet spot of price/performance. Then at the top end of the market 3900X and 3950X are making the 9900K only applicable to those who have very specific use cases for one or two applications or a single game when paired with the fastest consumer GPU money can buy.

Makes you think what 2020 will bring with the 4xxx series, and the tweaks that will be done to the Zen2-Zen3 architecture, with 20% better density and a further 10% power savings with 7nm+ EUV. If the trend stays the same the R5 3600 will be £120 by this time next year, and a quad core i3 will still be £100.
 
Intel are all about their laptop sales, and they are still utterly dominant there. The volumes are that much higher.

For the segment of the market that we exist in, sure, Intel are becoming irrelevant, but we shouldn't lose sight of the bigger picture itself.

As for why Ryzen CPUs perhaps aren't holding value, it is also likely because of the AM4 compatibility over more than just 1-2 generations. You don't get that with Intel, thus the second hand market is less of a thing just now. Perhaps this will change to an extent when the next socket is released.

While this is true, i get weekly emails direct from our Dell Account Manager (were a Fortune 500 Global Manufacturing company) stating there is 6 week+ delays on most Intel CPU's currently on the new 10th Gen platform....

So yes Intel is currently dominating a market they cannot supply, how long before OEM's get bored waiting and decide to dabble into the AMD CPU's?
 
Updated to BIOS 10c on my Gigabyte Aorus I board last night. 3900x now has more cores boosting to almost 4.6ghz. Seeing 6 cores reaching 4.58ghz or something like that. Before it was 2 cores reaching 4.6ghz - so it seems better balanced than before.

Also gained 100 points in CINEBENCH xD
