I figured I'd see the usual BAPC suspects reposted here.

The 2600X, what I'm replying to you on, is a good beast and at $199 you're getting decent value.

I'm almost tempted to go threadripper 2920X instead of 3800X, but I do want PCIe 4.0 and better support for high speed memory.

Tough choice, Zen+ is pretty decent, but would be much easier (motherboard availability) and cheaper to build. On the other hand Zen2 is days away, could be overhyped or if rumors and early benchmarks are to be believed could give you a significant increase in performance, especially IPC improvement which drives performance for many applications and games.

I suspect there will be more deals on Zen+ stuff as they probably have a bunch of stock.

Here's my challenge, if I get my 64GB of DDR4 3200Mhz CL16 shipped to me, I can barter it for a 3900X plus cash and still keep my pricing reasonable. A 3900X might be a better value proposition than a 2920X all-considered.

Edit: Save $40 on the i9-9900k? Come on Intel......you can do better than that.

Ok... I need a bench for the 2920X vs 3900X. $549 at CC is pretty solid, especially if you find a cheap TR board.

Are the new 3000x processors compatible with x470 motherboards?

Yes, probably with a firmware update.

Cheapest X399 board is $369. $140 more than the X570 MSI Gaming Plus board I preordered.

Yeah, I'll probably stick with Ryzen 3000 series chips, even if the 3900X is $150 more than the 2920X. Better that than lose the USB 3.1 gen 2 and PCIe 4.0 and better optimizations... and better high speed memory support.

I'd suggest waiting to buy until after the Zen 2 reviews are out. The new chips should overclock very well so if you're into overclocking, it'll be significantly faster than the Ryzen 2000. The Ryzen 2000 tends to top out at 4GHz but the Ryzen 3000 are gonna clock higher than 4GHz.

Intel is betting on the fact many people will look at Intel and AMD then decide "better to be safe" and pay the Intel premium. People are coming around, but, it will take awhile for the word to get out. Plus AMD will have to deliver on all these leaked benchmarks. And what's just as important, or perhaps even more so to the majority, is stability. They want it to just work and work fast. Intel has been driving home this message for quite some time - remember "Intel Inside"?

Yes, we remember 1997. When Intel was king and British Hong Kong was a timeless example of individual liberty and western capitalism.

Both concepts have since been shattered.

When the conservative corporates start moving towards AMD, Intel will see red.

Mainstream don't know what AMD is so it is a safe bet.

It's all about marketing. Intel has marketed themselves very well. I can't remember when was the last time I've seen an AMD related advertisement on TV, whether it be for CPUs or GPUs.

Those features alone will ensure a longer period of platform relevance. Well worth the extra $.

You mean sell the RAM to finance the purchase of a 3900x? Who is going to sell their brand-new 3900x for RAM?

Last-gen Threadrippers are being eclipsed by the current-gen 3900x consumer chip as I am sure you know (which is why you would prefer to get one).

It is about time that the Ryzen Zen+ chips started getting cleared out! 200 bucks for a 2600x is a very good price!!

I am going to get a 3000 series chip though. I have a 2500K for crying out loud!! :)

If the market is flooded with cheap 2600x chips though maybe I will buy a combo. or a used one if it is REALLY cheap to replace the 2500K as my new secondary system.

The 2600x new price of 200 bucks should crush the used market nicely.

Edit: Here should be an example of Adam Smith's invisible hand about to smite this seller:

Kijiji [barf]
Toronto 17 hours ago

"NEW UNOPENED AMD - Ryzen 5 2600 3.4 GHz 6-Core Processor
$250.00"

Said no one ever: "Hey I would LOVE to pay more for that Ryzen 2600 AND deal through Kijiji as an added incentive! to make a purchase!!"

The rumour mill is buzzing that Intel is going to cut their chips by 15% but they are probably waiting until the 7th to cut their prices. I wonder if they should have preemptively cut prices though (i.e. pulled an Nvidia and stole a march on AMD)?

Edit: I wish I had more money. The wants are accumulating faster than the ability to pay for them. I suppressed the wants for years and years and it seems like they don't skip leg day when they are biding their time in the deep.
