Abstract: The Ryzen 3000 series processor has finally launched. Equipped with superior clock-for-clock performance, more processors cores and great energy efficiency, the long-lost crown is finally back to the hands of AMD.AMD finally overtakes Intel in the pioneer...
Top-class multi-core performance for creative tasks, PCIe Gen 4 support for faster SSD speeds, Solid gaming performance
Intel still has the edge for gaming, Included cooler not powerful enough
For demanding creative tasks, the AMD Ryzen 9 3900X is one of the best processors available thanks to a super-high multi-core performance. It's also a versatile chip, with gaming performance proving to be solid – although the Intel Core i9-9900K still hol...

Improved IPC, Massive multi-core performance, Continues AM4 support, Blurs the lines between gaming and HEDT, Very good on power, Wide choice of X570 boards
Don't overclock fantastically
AMD impressed the technology world when it debuted the Zen CPU architecture a couple of years ago. Immediately competitive in multi-threaded applications and reasonable at gaming, executives were bombastic about future Zen designs improving upon the muscu...

Superb productivity performance in multi-threaded and single-threaded workloads, Excellent value compared to Intel competitors, Manageable power consumption with excellent efficiency values, Precision Boost 2 algorithm works very well, Strong high-speed m
Gaming performance is still slower than Intel Coffee Lake at the ultra-high-end, Platform cost is high due to expensive X570 motherboards, Maximum frequency capability is limited compared to Intel, even when overclocking
AMD's Zen 2 architecture in the Ryzen 3000 CPUs has delivered its side of the deal and the ability to squeeze twelve cores into a 105W package, thanks to smart design and the 7nm TSMC FinFET process, makes the Ryzen 9 3900X a success. The new AM4 flagship...
More than 8 cores now available in the mainstream, Improved single-core performance over 2nd Gen, Vastly better memory latency performance, Decent overclocking potential, Beats the Intel Core i9 9900K in almost every metric, Single core speed paired wit
Power hungry at low loads, Gets hot when overclocked
So, we're now 3 years into AMD's venture with Ryzen and we only become more impressed by what they've achieved. The first year provided a solid foundation to work from, the second year improved upon that with better memory support and improved XFR (boost...

I'm torn on which CPU is the best deal here. The Ryzen 7 3700X is the best all round for gaming I would think. It doesn't run as hot, and it uses less power. However, 8 cores is more than enough for 99% of the PC gamers out there, and the performance and...
Abstract: It's an exciting time for AMD, too. The red team has been on a roll with its CPUs since the first generation of Ryzen arrived back in 2017. Now we're two ranges down, and the firm is promising big changes – and big competition for market leader Intel.So...
We're massively impressed with the Ryzen 9 3900X both in terms of it taking the fight to Intel and offering more performance than previous-generation CPUs. We'll start with the negatives, though, namely the very poor overclocking headroom; we added just 2...
