Hey guys, I am a bit confused about how the 5900x out performs the I910900k at slower turbo boost speeds. I know it's not all about core speeds but I wondered if the 5900x will still perform better on other games such as building games where there are a lot of calculations going or will a higher turbo speed help more in this scenario? Probably not but thought I'd ask for confirmation :)

Thank you.
 
Tank you guys I read all of the comments and this helped a lot :)

From what we know so far, 5900x will outperform 10900K across the board. Really CPU bottlenecked titles like building games you mention stand to gain most.

By the way, Zen3 has deceptively high turbo boost. 5900x was seen boosting to 4.94GHz, which is not miles off what Intel does in long term workloads. And that is added to massive IPC gain mentioned above

This sounds really good for me, definately going to go for the 5900x then. Not only that but running cooler than a kettle is a great advantage too :)
