What a CPU. Roughly a 50% increase on my Ryzen 5 1600. Noticeable in everyway. 3rd gen is great. What a CPU. Roughly a 50% increase on my Ryzen 5 1600. Noticeable in everyway. 3rd gen is great.

Was looking at 3900x. Unfortunately, Looks like no stock of 3900x that I can find in store at launch. Well, saved me $300.
Back to the processor itself. Intel really feels the pressure now. Better performance for AMD at the same clock. Although Intel still holds up-hands with its 5Ghz 9900k. But that is like $250 more expensive with almost on-par performace. At that price range, AMD has 3900x with 4 more cores and 8 more threads. AMD did a really good job this time. Was looking at 3900x.

Upgraded from an R7 1700, in a Gigabyte AB350m Gaming 3.
Simple bios update and CPU swap took me all of half an hour, 3700X now happily running at 4.3 GHz.
Games much smoother now, ~45% improvement in benchmarks and compute work. Upgraded from an R7 1700, in a Gigabyte AB350m Gaming 3.

I think that best processor for the desktop computer on the market. It use low power - don't become too hot on the summer. Don't required complicated cooling system.
It have a lot of threads nice performance and middle price.
All processors with better performance have much bigger price. I think that best processor for the desktop computer on the market. It use low power - don't become too hot on the summer. Don't required complicated cooling system.

Fantastic CPU , hits the benchmark as per all reviews have shown, a bit overkill however the CPU gives me the little extra head room to facilitate long life. This will end up in my gaming system with either a 470X or 570X motherboard in the next month or so.

price point and best performance CPU.
have been using it for 3 weeks now and it is performing solidly. price point and best performance CPU.

Great bang for the buck. Makes streaming easier Great bang for the buck. Makes streaming easier

Primarily use my PC for photo and video editing for Adobe Lightroom and Photoshop with the occasional gaming. Watched a few reviews on You Tube regarding which upgrade path to take which all pointed to AMD 3700x. I matched this with a 570 mainboard and 64GB DDR4 3200. i have noticed a massive improvement in Photoshop and Premiere. I would highly recommend looking at AMD if you are a content creator and want to increase your productivity and workflow.

Was a huge upgrade from previous processor which was a Core i5 9400F. Great performance for amazing price.

Great part very good in a mid to high end set up. Quite good for money as if you don't have enough for a cooling fan it conveniently comes with one. Great part very good in a mid to high end set up. Quite good for money as if you don't have enough for a cooling fan it conveniently comes with one.

Carefully investigated specs and costs, matched advertised benchmarks. Great to be able to play games with high fps for a change Carefully investigated specs and costs, matched advertised benchmarks. Great to be able to play games with high fps for a change

Amazing performance for the price. Glad I waited for the 3000 series. Amazing performance for the price. Glad I waited for the 3000 series.
