Like alot of us I imagine I've been waiting for this for awhile - these look good enough in gaming that I've finally been able to make the decision to buy and not "keep waiting"

I guess it's time to put together a CPU/MOBO/RAM combo over the next few days and pull that trigger - hopefully availability isn't too tough - these look really good

Ez paper launch.

Don't be dummy. Our shops have currently "unlimited" availability on all introduced models. And since some of our shops show last XX purchased products, list if full of Zen3 CPUs.
(One particular shop has like 10 orders for Ryzen CPUs every minute now.)

I was not expecting results that good. The 5900X is 4c/8t less than the 3950X yet offers almost the same performance.

These models have 3 chiplets (including the IO die) right? Aren't some models like the 3800X supposed to have 2? Because if so, I sure am excited to see the results of those.
