I enabled PBO and observed the CPU's behavior in HW monitor with great interest. All 16 cores will boost to 4.4 GHz individually, and all together have boosted to 4.24 GHz. That was not commonly happening when this CPU was first released and reviewed, and I wonder if this one is just better, or if all the more recently built ones are better silicon overall. I noticed that under a moderate load, the temps hold at about 51 degrees, and under a heavy boost, temps go into the low 60s before the fans spool up and drive them back into the 50s. That's impressive considering I am using a round AIO cooler that doesn't even cover the entire IHS. Looking at the PBO constraints, I find that the limiting factor thus far is not temperature at all but voltage. This makes me wonder if I can undervolt and obtain the 200MHz offset for 4.6 GHz. Not that this really matters, its just a fun and interesting thing to check out. What does matter is that I came from a 1900X, and I am kind of shocked by the difference. Dota2 saw a 22% increase in FPS, and I'm not exactly sure why. Other games it made no difference. I think some games suffered from the first gen TR scheduling, though the 1900X certainly did far better in games than I expected. Interacting with gigantic folders of images in windows is completely different with double the cores. 32 threads is more than enough most of the time for me. I checked. Even with my "leave everything up when I take a brake to game" use case, I still found that 4 to 6 of the 32 threads weren't being used. On the other hand, when you do a batch file conversion, its pretty cool that programs use all available resources. I'm glad I was able to get one of these before they disappear. I have an enormous amount of storage with the x399 NVME setup and I don't really feel like building a new system yet. This is a nice stopgap, though I wish the 3960X was a 16 core that fit in X399. I'm not sure that anyone should get this, except if you currently have a 1900x or 1920x, or if you can find a great deal on all the hardware and absolutely need the I/O. Otherwise X570 with 3950X is the way to go.

NOTE: Bought this when it was on sale (550$) and I had money to spend on upgrades. I would NOT recommend buying at the current price (~980$). First off, this is not a gaming CPU; it is built for higher-end workstation tasks such as rendering and CAD functionality. Still, a TR2950X will absolutely run circles around most games, even the latest ones, and only use a little more power than it usually does. It also doesn't use that much at idle, maybe about 42-45W, for such a massive piece of hardware. My GPU seems to use more than that just for idle. Main issues might be one of the expense for the equipment needed to match this monster. TR4 socket motherboards are pricier than the standard AM4 socketed ones, and more RAM to match will also increase the price. Your bottleneck will likely become your GPU unless you are willing to brave the current market (which as of late-June/early-July 2022 is ONLY just beginning to fall to regular levels). I almost never experience slowdown on Windows anymore, and my GPU is currently struggling to keep up with it! Overall its been an incredible upgrade from the FX8320 I used to have, and I expect to get another good decade out of it unless quantum computing takes over suddenly.

I'm not sure why this CPU is dropping in price and playing second fiddle to the new Ryzen 3700's because this thing is a MONSTER. The only issues I have are that some of my programs are not multi-core designed so in my older version of After Effects, it's like I'm running a Celeron or something. But that's not this CPU's fault. It's has way more power than what you need for gaming. But I use it for video editing. When I started editing videos back in the Pentium 4 days, it would take 2-4 X's the length of the video to encode an SD video to a DVD. So a 1 hour video would take between 2-4 hours. This CPU takes a 1 hour SD video and spits it out in the same DVD format in a little over 5 minutes (CPU usage is usually only 60% during this process). My 2011 Quad Core W/ HT i7 will take 30 minutes for the same process. I know that is an extreme example, but it is consistent (an old P4 will never have messed with HD or 4K, so we're keeping things consistent). And since the CPU is only using 60% while it's encoding, I no longer have to leave the computer overnight to do its thing. Rather, I can put one video on encode and then pull up another one and do some editing and it doesn't slow things down AT ALL!!! I'm telling you, if you do heaving multitasking and video editing, you NEED this CPU. For the $$$, it is the BEST performance you will find. Obviously don't sink this thing with dumb crap like too little RAM or with anything less than an NVMe drive. And make sure you use a proper GPU. And BTW, I have not O/C'd this chip. It's totally stock with a Noctua fan on it. This fan is the best option as others have tested water on it and it doesn't seem to be right for this chip. Find the Noctua cooler/fan combo that fits this chip. It has a large enough base for the girth this chip brings to your bed.
