Ring vs mesh...dual vs quad.
Also in games,the mesh bus causes problems. IIRC,there were games where SKL-X was slower than Zen in,but the consumer socket SKL was faster than Zen.
Yeah mesh is hit n miss and you need to OC your mesh properly or it'll hold back the platform a fair amount. Intel's HEDT platform outside OC fun is pretty useless from a practicality standpoint.
If the needed HEDT for multi core scaling, quad channel or more PCIe lanes, TR4 is the way to go.
I do think the 6C/12T Core i5 10600K and Core i5 10400F are going to be solid choices for gaming IMHO.

Finally we get some stock realistic numbers and not golden bin overclocks on exotic cooling

At stock the 10900k runs at all core 4.8ghz, draws 235w and with a 240mm AIO peaks at 93c.
Thermal velocity boost did not kick in to boost the clock speed because the temperature exceeded the 70c ceiling for Thermal Velocity Boost. To get TVB clock speeds you need a cooler that is 23c better than a 240mm AIO

OH DEAR, OH DEAR, OH DEAR looks like 360mm aio or custom cooling is going to be needed minimum to have any chance of keeping it below 70 degrees to enable thermal velocity boost
Also the pump needs to be after the rad otherwise the liquid might start evaporating![]()

So at stock, it's consumption is 100 watts more than the 3950x at stock. That's 10 vs 16 cores. That's insane.
Not all that surprising though, they're eeking all the clockspeed they can out of these things thermals be damned.
